The Impressionist movement gave the world not only some of the greatest works of art, but also some unique and beautiful gardens. This book explores how they were fashioned by Impressionists from three continents – Europe, North America and Australia - enjoying the essentially similar pleasures of the garden, but engaging with the light in order to create very different sensations. The enclosure of the artist’s garden acts like a picture frame showcasing a living canvas that exudes the individuality, vision and taste of its tenants, their family, friends and lifestyles.
