Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Penn Studies in Landscape Architecture. First printing. Edited and translated by Samuel Danon. Volume, measuring approximately 6" x 9", is bound in green cloth, with stamped silver lettering to spine. Book and dust jacket are new. vi/90 pages. "Published in 1774, "Essay on the Garden" is one of the earliest texts showing the progressive shift in French taste from the classical model of the gardens of Versailles to the picturesque or natural style of garden design in the late eighteenth century. Claude-Henri Watelet describes an ideal farm and also his own very real garden, Moulin Joli, near Paris. He advances the theory that the useful and the pleasurable must be combined in the planning, preservation, and decoration of the land by offering a relatively novel design that uses experimental methods to create a comfortable estate. The result is a horticultural and ecological laboratory that includes a residence, a farm, stables, a dairy, an apiary, a mill, walks, vistas, flower beds, an area reserved for medicinal plants, decorative statues, a medical laboratory, and even a small infirmary for ailing members of the community." "Given the wide scholarly interest in the field of garden design and its history, this first English edition of Watelet's small but influential book will interest historians of landscape design as well as students of the history of architecture.".
