Gartenverschönerungen: oder Entwürfe zu geschmackvollen Gartengebäuden u. Zierden ...
A 1837 German garden-architecture pattern book by Benedikt Piringer, issued for garden owners and designers to choose ornamental buildings from. Its plates show elevations of small pavilions, temples and gate buildings set among trees, paired with plans drawn beneath them in plain line work. A designer could take from them the stock vocabulary of neoclassical garden structures: octagonal and circular plans, domed kiosks, castellated lodges, obelisks and tomb-like monuments.
