Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... Chapter XIV Conclusion-- Concerning Colour-- Difficulty of Comparisons betwixt Art and Nature THE art of painting has been usually treated under four distinct heads, viz.: Composition; Design, or Drawing; Expression; and Colouring, -- each of which may, in some measure, be applied to landscape gardening, as it has been treated in this work. Composition includes those observations on utility, scale, perspective, etc., contained in Chapters I and II. Design may be considered as belonging to the remarks on water, woods, fences, lines, etc., contained in Chapters III, IV, V, VI, and VII. Expression includes all that relates to character, situation, arrangement, and the adaptation of works of art to the scenery of nature, which have been discussed in the remaining Chapters of this work; and, lastly, Colouring, so far as it relates to certain artificial objects, has been mentioned in Chapter XI. Having since been led to consider this subject more attentively, in consequence of a conversation with Mr. Wilberforce concerning a new theory of colours and shadows, I have, through his intervention, obtained permission to enrich my work with the following curious remarks: and as Mr. Wilberforce, in his letter which enclosed them, observes of their reverend and learned author that" he is a man unequalled " " for the store of knowledge he possesses, for the clearness with which he views, and the happy perspicuity with which he communicates his conceptions," so I shall give this theory in his own words.47 This curious and satisfactory theory demonstrates that the choice of colours which so often distinguishes good from bad taste in manufactures, furniture, dress, and in every circumstance where colour may be artificially introduced, is not the effect of...

William Sawrey Gilpin (1761/2-1843), landscape painter and illustrator, later became a landscape gardener and writer. He set himself up as a drawing master in Paddington Green and also illustrated picturesque travel-writing. Between 1804 and 1806 he was the first president of the Society of Painters in Water Colours, and then the third drawing master at the Royal Military College in Marlow. After being discharged from this post, Gilpin became a successful landscape gardener and advisor to the nobility. His approach to landscape gardening was influenced by painting and Sir Uvedale Price's Essay on the Picturesque (1794). Gilpin's Hints, published in 1832, advocates that landscapes should be improved by the 'taste' of a painter's eye, and artificial buildings united with their surroundings. Like his landscape practice, this book was highly regarded by Gilpin's contemporaries for its emphasis on the picturesque, especially when landscape gardening centred upon the introduction of exotic plants.

Excerpt from Hints on Landscape Gardening His letters from England, which were published at the time not only in German, but also in English and in French, give most valuable and discriminating criticism of landscape art, with descriptions of natural and artificial scenery. He refers in these letters to a great range of places, including Oxford, Kenilworth Castle, Tintern Abbey, Regent's Park, London, Eaton Hall, Warwick Castle, Blenheim, and Buckingham Palace. Better than anything else they give evidence of his understanding of the art of landscape architecture during one of its most fruitful periods. Goethe wrote at the time that Prince Puckler's letters were a pattern in all that relates to landscape gardening, and "belong," he adds, "to the highest class of literature." In his writings Prince Puckler not only gives vivid concrete pictures of the great English estates, he also points out repeatedly the fundamental principles of the art of landscape gardening which they illustrate, and on which their convenience, beauty, and perfection depend. The great work of art, however, to which this talented gentleman and greatest of amateur landscape gardeners gave the best years of his life was the development of his estate at Muskau. It comprises a beautiful valley, with irregular rising land skirting the river levels, hills supplying the frame for his picture.
