Essays by Thomas Weiss, Ursula Bode and others. Built in the late 1700's the Garden Kingdom of Prince Franz von Anhalt-Dessau was the most spectacular and extensive garden not just in Germany, but in all of Europe. Located fifty miles southwest of Berlin, and employing classical, late Gothic, and oriental architecture, it represented a monumental achievement in landscape design. This book is the first to offer a comprehensive, beautifully illustrated overview of this idyllic location, and it traces the historical sources that made the Garden Kingdom epitomize the ideals of the European Enlightenment. As a window into 18th century aristocratic notions of nature, and as an important part of architectural and garden history, this book offers a deft combination of scholarship and accessibility
