The Gardens of Russell Page.

Marina Schinz & Gabrielle van Zuylen.

Explores the genius of English landscape architect and garden designer Russell Page, 1906-1985. He brought an architectural sense of style to the gardens he designed for wealthy clients in Europe and the USA. Early in his career he collaborated on garden projects with Geoffrey Jellicoe. After war service, he often worked abroad for prestigious clients and became noted for such things as his use of water and trees, his scale and proportion as well as hedges, garden compartments and steps. The authors of this superb book had access to his private files and also found and photographed much of his best garden work, both early and late, some never before published. There are 250 superb colour photographs and the text includes some revealing words of the man himself. A large heavy book.
