5.0 out of 5 stars Photos and paintings of antique gardens make a lovely book!, 2 Oct 1998
By A Customer
Written by May Browley Hill, an art student and passionate gardener, this book is terrific! Using archival photographs and paintings of famous gardens, she creates a beautiful book. For lovers of Monet's Giverny, there are photos plus Monet's paintings of the gardens. Childe Hassam's paintings of Celia Thaxter's garden on Appledore Island joined with actual photos are wonderful. Many other equally charming gardens are featured. After reading and savoring this book, budding artist-gardener types may be inspired to capture their own gardens on paper.
