A Natural History of English Gardening
Arts & Crafts Stained Glass
Samuel Palmer
Ireland
Peter Cormack
Shadows on the Wall William Vaughan
A beautifully illustrated exploration of the quest for order within the garden, and within the natural world, this magnificent book is an invaluable contribution to landscape and horticultural history.
A gorgeously illustrated, insightful corrective, Arts & Crafts Stained Glass demonstrates how this progressive and innovative movement radically transformed the aesthetics and production of stained glass in Britain and America.
This fresh, comprehensive monograph reveals the many influences and resources that made this artist one of the most idiosyncratic painters of English landscapes – and a precursor to 20th-century modernism.
