Description
Smooth lawns, glassy pools, cool garden temples, mysterious woodland glades, evocative statuary... the 18th-century English landscape garden offers a transcendent vision of Arcadia; a world of rich escapism peopled by gods and goddesses, young lovers and dairymaids, poets and philosophers. This beautifully photographed volume celebrates 20 of the finest surviving gardens, including: Studley Royal (Yorkshire), Stowe (Buckinghamshire), Chiswick House (London), Petworth (Sussex), Hawkstone Park (Shropshire).
