DUTCH REGENCY HOUSES AND GARDENS
Modern binding of black cloth spine and marbled paper -covered boards with gilt-lettered black leather label. An attractive clean copy.
Two parts in one volume. Etched vignette on title page, etched headpiece on dedication leaf, frontispieces for the two parts, folding engraved map and 100 copper-engraved views on fifty leaves with brief descriptions in Dutch and French. The plates are unsigned but the title states that they are by Hendrik de Leth .
Scarce documentation of Dutch architecture and gardens of the late 17th and early 18th centuries with plans and views of town and country houses and their elaborate gardens in Kennermerland, a fashionable country district north of Haarlem. The houses are in the Dutch Regency style and subordinate to the gardens, which, while still symmetrical, show natural elements superseding the formal. They include water features, a labyrinth, allées of trees, parterres, a Turkish tent and other pavilions, amphitheaters, a triumphal arch, statues and vases.

In this edition of the Sakuteiki, the authors provide both an English-language translation of this classic work; and an introduction to the cultural and historical context that led to the development of Japanese gardening.
