Glasewald, Ephraim Wolfgang, Darnstedt, Johann Adolph, 1769-1844, Thormeyer, Gottlob Friedrich, 1775-1842, Serrurier, Louis, fl. 1790-1800, Unger, Johann Friedrich · 1799 · Berlin : Gedruckt bei Johann Friedrich Unger · 13 pictures

A 1799 German garden description published in Berlin by Johann Friedrich Unger, written by Ephraim Wolfgang Glasewald and others, documenting the garden at Machern and its tree species for landscape and garden readers. The plates are engraved architectural sections, plans and details of ruins, walls, stairs and a statue niche, with the Getty Research Institute copy showing clean printed line work. A designer could take from them the layered section drawings that show how a garden structure sits within its slope, with planting cut away above masonry.
