Description

Step inside the gardens of some of history's most celebrated artists in this beautifully crafted gift book by gardener and writer Jonny Bruce.

Here the living landscapes where artists found inspiration, refuge and creative clarity are revealed, where gardens are more than just backdrops: they are creative sanctuaries, shaped with intention, history and care.

Exploring planting schemes, garden histories and natural details that influenced particular works, rich parallels between the practices of the gardener and the artist are discovered and the artist's garden is celebrated as a living artwork – an immersive collaboration between nature and human creativity.

Featuring works from artists such as Claude Monet, Frida Kahlo, Georgia O'Keeffe, Derek Jarman, Barbara Hepworth, John Nash, Li Yuan-chia, and many more.
