The Gardens of Europe

Second Hand (Hardcover)

Excellent Condition

The art of gardening has flourished in Europe for almost 2000 years and in no other part of the world is there such a rich profusion of gardens to be visited.

From the intimate Moorish courtyards at the heart of the Alhambra to the great baroque layouts such as Versailles or Vaux-le-Vicomte, and the luxuriant planting of Sissinghurst and Hidcote in England.

An international team of experts has contributed to the authoritative and lively text.

Richly illustrated throughout with photographs, paintings and engravings and with maps showing the location of every garden described.
