Die Gartenkunst der italienischen Renaissance-Zeit

Tuckermann, Wilhelm · 1884 · 71 pictures

Die Gartenkunst der italienischen Renaissance-Zeit is a scholarly German book on Italian Renaissance garden design, written by Wilhelm Tuckermann and published in 1884, held by Heidelberg University Library. Its pictures are black-and-white wood engravings, mostly rotated pages, of formal villa gardens with clipped hedges, parterres, terraces, and stairways, plus one plan and elevation drawing. A designer could draw on their rigid geometric layouts, tiered terraces, and dense hedge patterns for structured garden or landscape compositions.
