Plans raisonnés de toutes les espèces de jardins

Thouin, Gabriel [Hrsg.] · 1828 · 51 pictures

Plans raisonnés de toutes les espèces de jardins is a French garden-design book edited by Gabriel Thouin and published in 1828, with plates of landscape garden layouts for designers and gardeners. Its pictures are engraved plan views of garden layouts, with paths, lakes and tree clusters drawn in fine line and pale wash, and surrounding vignettes of pavilions, temples and bridges. A designer could take from them the schematic plan style and the way paths and water are arranged within an irregular outline.
