Romantic Gardens
Rogers, Elizabeth / Eustis, Elizabeth S. / Bidwell, John
The opposite of Classicism, with it regard for order and rules, Romanticism gave primacy to the imagination, to the senses, to intuition and inspiration, putting a premium on the spectacular, the mysterious, and the dramatic. This book demonstrates through drawings, designs, watercolours, and engravings, a narrative of the course of Romanticism.
