Summary:
Lancelot “Capability” Brown is often thought of as the innovative genius who single-handedly pioneered a new, naturalistic style of landscape design, but he was in fact only one of many landscape designers in Georgian England. Published to commemorate the three hundredth anniversary of Brown’s birth, this book casts important new light on his world-renowned work, his eventful life, and the wider and robust world of landscape design in Georgian England. David Brown and Tom Williamson argue that Brown was one of the most successful designers of his time working in a style that was otherwise widespread—and that it was his skill with this style, and not his having invented it, that linked his name to it. The authors look closely at Brown’s design business and the products he offered clients, showing that his design packages helped define the era’s aesthetic. They compare Brown’s business to those of similar designers such as the Adam brothers, Thomas Chippendale, and Josiah Wedgwood, and they contextualize Brown’s work within the wider contexts of domestic planning and the rise of neoclassicism. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this book celebrates the work of a master designer who was both a product and harbinger of the modern world.

Summary:
Standing on Mont Ventoux near Avignon, the fourteenth-century poet Petrarch experienced an entirely new sensation that he described as 'stepping out of time and space'. On the mountain's summit he was as far as he could be from the 'world's stage all around'. The huge distance reduced reference points to insignificant specks down below, and everything in the panorama(...)

Summary:
Standing on Mont Ventoux near Avignon, the fourteenth-century poet Petrarch experienced an entirely new sensation that he described as 'stepping out of time and space'. On the mountain's summit he was as far as he could be from the 'world's stage all around'. The huge distance reduced reference points to insignificant specks down below, and everything in the panorama seemed motionless, dispelling any notion of time. Petrarch had placed himself outside reality. That is what makes aerial photography so fascinating, writes Clemens M. Steenbergen, professor of landscape architecture at Delft University of Technology, in his introduction. The higher the viewpoint the greater the visual control and the more abstract the image. We can see whether a landscape has been shaped by man or is pure nature, how space and mass form one composition. Aerial photographer and landscape architect Peter van Bolhuis captures on camera the Dutch landscape: areas devoted to agriculture, forestry, nature, infrastructure and urban development. The pictures show us the achievements of a half century of landscape architecture. We see a landscape in which everything is precisely measured and demarcated, everything is planned and calculated, with no space left unattended. We see, writes Tracy Metz in one of the essays, 'a landscape that is the sum of negotiations about ever smaller parts'.
