Description
Roman Gardens explores the origins and design of ancient Roman garden spaces, drawing inspiration from Greek influences. The book examines private domestic gardens, those connected to theatres and temples, as well as mausolea, highlighting how rooms were designed for optimal views of the gardens. A focus on Roman water gardens, pools, fountain designs, and ornamental features such as nymphaea, sundials, trellising, topiary, and plants is also presented. The author's extensive research and collection of illustrations are featured throughout the book, showcasing their expertise in the field of Roman art and architecture. Anthony Beeson, a board member of the Association for Roman Archaeology, brings his knowledge to this project, providing a wealth of information on Roman garden design and its significance.
