内容説明

Structured around the works and personalities of more than 20 leading 20th-century landscape and garden designers of Britain, Europe and the Americas, this book begins with an examination of the garden in this century. It then provides 23 portfolios of text and colour photographs dealing with specific seminal sites, including the Viceregal Gardens in New Delhi (by Lutyens); Dumbarton Oaks in Washington, DC (Farrand); Fallingwater, Pennsylvania (Frank Lloyd Wright); the MoMA and Noguchi Sculpture Gardens and Paley Park in New York; San Cristobal, Mexico City (Barragan); and work by Alvar Aalto, Roberto Burle Marx, Carlo Scarpa, Dan Kiley and Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe. The American author is an internationally-renowned garden and landscape historian whose other books include "Nature Perfected", "Denatured Visions", "Roberto Burle Marx: Unnatural Art of the Garden" and "Jefferson's Monticello".
