One of the leading authorities on Georgian landscape architecture, Roger White explores a genre in which some of the era's greatest architects experimented with different forms, styles, and new technology. Covering not just the obvious adornments of parks and gardens such as temples, summerhouses, grottoes, towers and "follies," the book also explores structures with predominantly practical functions including mausolea, boathouses, dovecotes, stables, kennels, deer pens, barns, and cowsheds, all of which could be dressed up to make an architectural impact. White examines these structures not only architecturally but from a functional and cultural viewpoint, considering questions of stylistic origins and development. Focussing on the contributions of Britain's leading eighteenth-century architects - Vanbrugh, Hawksmoor, Gibbs, Kent, Adam, Chambers, Wyatt, and Soane - Georgian Arcadia provides a richly illustrated account of a period of innovative and diverse garden building. 0aArchitecture, GeorgianzGreat Britain. 0aOutbuildingszGreat BritainxHistory. 0aGarden structureszGreat BritainxHistory. 0aPavilionszGreat BritainxHistory. 0aPrint books.2local94 2lcccBOOKS c608374d608374 00102lcc4070aAUbAUcGENd2026-02-08l0oNA966.5.G45 W49 2023pAU00000000021309r2026-02-08 14:24:11v465.00w2026-02-08yBOOKS
