For the first time, this book explores to the full, with dazzling
visual accompaniment, the fascinating story of the Impressionist
love affair with the new thinking about gardens, their flowers and
design, in 19th-century France. It discusses the artists both as
painters and as gardeners, and, using source material such as
contemporary gardening manuals, offers exciting new interpretations
of their art. It also looks at the garden, public or private, as a
new kind of space with political undertones, and relates it to the
Impressionists’ adoption of plein-air techniques. While the
approach is to concentrate on analyses of specific works, the
historical context is presented in a clear, informative and
engaging manner. There is also some lively discussion of the
private lives of these artists.
