Gemalte Garten: Bilder Aus Zwei Jahrtausenden

Paintings of gardens document developments in art history - in the design of gardens as well as in painting. At the same time, they reflect the social, historical, and aesthetic concepts within which gardens were conceived, planned and executed. The garden painting also manifests our ideal of a paradisaic environment. This volume presents 130 paintings that exemplify continuity and change within this genre. German text.
