Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Essay on the Picturesque: As Compared With the Sublime and the Beautiful; And on the Use of Studying Pictures, for the Purpose of Improving Real Landscape As the general plan and intention of my work have been a good deal misunderstood, I wish to give a short account of them both. The title itself might have shewn that I aimed at something more than a mere book of gardenings some, however, have conceived that I ought to have begun by setting forth all my ideas of lawns, shrubberies, gravel walks, &c.; and as my arrangement did not coincide with their notions of what it ought to have been, they seem to have concluded that I had no plan at all. I have in this essay undertaken to treat of two subjects, distinct, but intimately conceded, and which, as I conceive, throw a reciprocal light on each other.
