Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Rousham and its landscape garden, located in rural Oxfordshire, is one of the few gardens of the first phase of English landscape design to have escaped alteration. Informative and well-illustrated, The Statues at Rousham Park describes how the retired General James Dormer, who inherited Ro…usham in 1738, completed Charles Bridgemans garden design with the help of William Kent, but reserved for himself the choice of statues and their placement. Taken together, the statues and busts, in both lead and stone, suggest an autobiographical portrait of Dormer. Despite the gardens at Rousham being a popular local attraction, a site of pilgrimage to students of William Kent, and the backdrop to world-famous television drama including the BBCs recent adaptation of Nancy Mitfords The Pursuit of Love (2021), this is the first publication of its kind on its statues and their surrounding landscape. Informative and well-illustrated, this book describes how the retired General Dormer, who inherited Rousham in 1738, completed Charles Bridgemans garden design with the help of William Kent, but reserved for himself the choice of statues and their placement. Taken together, the statues and busts suggest an autobiographical portrait of Dormer. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
