The Gardens At Rousham (Hardcover)

Rousham in Oxfordshire was one of the first landscape gardens
created in England and is, still, one of the most influential.
Designed by William Kent in the late 1730s for the Cottrell-Dormer
family (who are its owners today) it has become a place of
pilgrimage for landscape architects and garden designers worldwide
as well as garden lovers. Its magical glades and sculptural
set-pieces have long intrigued Francis Hamel, who has lived and
worked there for 25 years. Since the beginning of 2020 he has
composed an extraordinary collection of paintings that capture the
gardens and their magic. With essays by Tom Stuart-Smith, Joanna
Kavenna and Christopher Woodward, the reader is led down its
mysterious pathways; from tree-shaded walks peopled with statues of
Pan, Venus and other immortals to sun-dappled meadows carpeted with
wild flowers. It is just as Kent left it- a secret garden that is
open to all.
