About This Item
New York: Stewart. Tabori & Chang, 1991. Very well illustrated, large tall quarto, pp 255, extremely clean internally, green cloth with a slight bump to the base of the spine and minor bruises to the top corners but otherwise very good, in a very good dustwrapper with similar slight bumps. [A heavy book - extra postage may be needed. " The work of the English landscape architect Russell Page is documented by photographer Marina Schinz. Included are examples of Page's best work, both early and late, some never published before. Water and trees, scale and proportion are captured in photographs and text that retrace a legacy reaching across America and Europe. The search for Russell Page's gardens involved deciphering discrete references to clients in his notes and indentifying unmarked photographs from his private files and unpublished writings."]. First Edition. Cloth. Very Good/Very Good.
