This is a Dutch pattern book of garden ornaments, compiled by Simon Schijnvoet and published in Amsterdam in 1742 by H. de Wit for garden makers and decorative craftsmen. Its engraved plates show vases, pedestals, obelisks and planters set against clipped hedges, with sculpted figures, garlands and scrolled bases that a designer could borrow for ornamental motifs or classical garden structures.
