The Architecture of Western Gardens presents an international tour of garden design from the Renaissance to the present. As object and as literature, it is a sumptuous and unprecedented resource. The more than seventy essays by scholars from Europe and America all commissioned for this book - and over 650 illustrations raise the standard of garden literature to a new level. The result is an invaluable compendium that will serve as a fundamental starting point for exploring the many expressions of the place where nature and culture, project and diversion, work and pleasure meet.

Organized chronologically, the essays and illustrations make up a mosaic of the garden in the Western world. The humanist garden in Renaissance Italy, the concepts of the "Sublime" and the "Picturesque," mazes, grottoes, and other curiosities, city parks, American land art, and even Disneyland are among the topics treated. Discussions of characteristic aspects of history and theory are followed by analyses of individual gardens as paradigms of their type: the Hortus Palatinus in Heidelberg, the Parc Monceau in Paris, the Park Güell in Barcelona, Stowe in England, and many more.

The illustrations are a model of how iconography can function as text. They include ground plans meticulously redrawn from original archival material to provide precise information on the scale and nature of many of the projects, as well as a wealth of drawings, reconstructions, paintings, and photographs.

Wide, feminine neck
Special Size: Two Pack, Size: Medium, Color: Black/Army Green
I ordered Medium, as I usually wear. I’m 5’11” 175lbs. The neck was very wide and cut semi/deep. It looked like a woman’s workout shirt. The material looks and feels nice, and other than the neck it fit true to size. I returned it because of how they fit in the neck.

Nicer than expected
Very cute and fun to wear. Band is soft and comfortable. The whole face lights up which is very convenient when you’re in a dark theater and want to know how much longer you must suffer through the show. Would highly recommend if you want something summery & fun

Timex tradition
The watch is pretty and functions great. The only thing I don't like is the light blue second hand is a bit hard to see in certain lighting. The other hands and numbers are easy to read and the band is easy to use. Nice watch with my favorite features.
