gardens and the picturesque,
By mike acosta (sacramento, california United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gardens and the Picturesque: Studies in the History of Landscape Architecture (Paperback)
the title of this book, " gardens and the picturesque" is a bit misleading for those seeking to gain insight on what the term picturesque originally meant.hunt focuses on a prolepitc look at the picturesque. that is he discusses who in the future was influenced by this view of landscape reality.i found john barrell's book "the idea of landscape and the sense of place" more insightful in undersatnding what the term picturesque meant for those that coined the term in the 18th century.
