Books, Manuscripts
The name Lancelot 'Capability' Brown has become synonomous with the 18th-century English landscape garden. Rising to the position of Master Gardener to George III, his trademark features included bald lawns, clumped trees, lakes and enclosing belts of woodland in the estate's perimeter. This book explores his work.
