Isaac Kremer/ June 21, 2019/ / 0 comments
The art and practice of landscape architecture when applied to designs of a regular and symmetrical character; that is, with little reference to natural dispositions, but rather on a geometrical plan, with straight walks, clipped hedges, carefully arranged grouping of trees, and comparatively a large amount of architectural adornment in the way of parapets, terraces, pedestals, and the like. (Sturgis, 1900)
