Beschreibung

Calvert Vaux (1824-1895), better known as an architect, is most remembered as Olmsted's partner in the design of Central Park, primarily of its architectural features. In this visionary book, Francis R. Kowsky illuminates Vaux's work as a landscape architect with a significant practice of his own. Vaux's designs expressed his belief in the restorative power of scenery and his faith in the efficacy of public greenspaces to mitigate the ills of America's burgeoning cities.
