The formal garden in England

Blomfield, Reginald Theodore, Sir, 1856-1942 · 1901 · London : Macmillan · 29 pictures

Sir Reginald Blomfield's 1901 London study from Macmillan on the formal garden in England, a scholarly survey of garden design for architects and garden makers. The four plates are rotated line engravings of country-house façades, a clipped formal layout, and a terraced hillside garden with figures and stone steps, showing structure and proportion a designer could borrow for axial plans and terraces.
