Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First Edition. First edition. Folio. Cloth binding, 493 pp. Illustrated throughout in color. Lushly illustrated with nearly 500 color photographs, this book offers a thorough account of how the art of garden design developed since antiquity, discussing its most important periods and theories with numerous examples. The cultural history of gardens is closely tied to human aspiration. According to most of the world's creation stories, the human race began in an enclosed garden with trees, blossoms, fruits and clear springs. This passion for shaping the abundance of nature runs throughout history, while each era is characterized by a different style, including sacred groves and gardens in ancient Greece and Rome, the hidden hortus conclusus of the Middle Ages, and the Moorish gardens of Spain, with their strong Islamic influences. The majority of the book is dedicated to the European gardens of the Renaissance, Baroque, Enlightenment, and Romantic eras - about 1500 to 1850. New in new dustjacket. Seller Inventory # 017435
