In 1794, Uvedale Price (1747 1829) published his seminal essay on
the application of techniques found in landscape painting to the
art of landscape gardening. Considered by many to be the successor
to Capability Brown, whose approach to landscape design was
rejected in no uncertain terms by Price and his followers, Humphry
Repton (1752 1818) wrote a letter to Price, with whom he had
previously enjoyed good relations, in which he contested certain
points in the essay - in particular the necessity of adhering so
closely to the principles of landscape painting in the creation of
a garden. This reissue is of the 1798 second edition of Price's
reply to Repton's criticisms, and forms a supplement to Price's
essay of 1794 (also reissued in this series). Repton's original
letter is included at the beginning of the text."
