Flying to Flowers

摘要

In this exquisite book, the authoritative Attlee and her photographer husband, Ramsay (coauthors, Italy's Private Gardens), include 20 of Britain's best gardens representing varied climates, settings, and types such as Victorian, Edwardian, and 21st-century gardens. The photographs range from full-page to small and more intimate, and most capture the height of the season, with a few illustrating the raw beauty of autumn. The pictures also encompass sculpture and other ornamentation; a cow, a gardener, and even a child add warmth and humanity.
