Excerpt from The Landscape Gardening and Landscape Architecture of the Late Humphrey Repton, Esq.: Being His Entire Works on These Subjects, a New Edition, With an Historical and Scientific Introduction, a Systematic Analysis, a Biographical Notice, Notices, and a Copious Alphabetical Index
Gardening, as an Art of Culture, since the commencement of the present century, has made rapid progress; but, as an Art of Taste, it has been comparatively stationary. One of the principal causes of this state of things, is the abundance of good and cheap books on subjects belonging to the former department, and the scarcity and high price of those treating of the latter. To remedy this evil, it is contemplated to publish a aeries of four or five volumes, which shall include a reprint of all the best works on Landscape Gardening which have hitherto appeared; illustrating these works, where it appears desirable, with notes, commentaries, and engravings.
The art of laying out the grounds which immediately surround a country residence, may be displayed in two very distinct styles: the first of which is called the Ancient, Roman, Geometric, Regular, or Architectural Style; and the second, the Modem, English, Irregular, Natural, or Landscape Style. Both these styles are, in different stages of satiety, equally congenial to the human mind.
