(Art of the Garden) taked a broad view, analyzing the domestic garden, parts, the artist’s own backyard and imaginary gardens. It talked about paintings such as John Singer Sargent’s Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose 1885-6 and The Badminton Game 1972-3 by David Inshaw. It talked about the furniture that have to be in anyone's garden also the children part on that garden. I enjoy reading this book because it gives very important information about the lovely place for me
