Description

“Beatrix Farrand: Garden Artist, Landscape Architect” is an updated edition of the definitive 2009 monograph, marking the 150th anniversary of Farrand’s birth. This book, published by Monacelli Press, offers an in-depth exploration of the life and legacy of one of the most significant figures in American landscape architecture. As the only female founder of the American Society of Landscape Architects, Beatrix Farrand’s influence extends far beyond her era. The book showcases her work on prestigious private gardens for the likes of the Rockefellers and the Harknesses, as well as her contributions to public spaces and notable university campuses. The volume is richly illustrated with archival images, photographs of Farrand’s gardens at their peak, and watercolor renderings of her designs, now preserved at the College of Environmental Design at UC Berkeley. The new edition features updated images, a comprehensive list of Farrand’s commissions, gardens open to the public, and a revised bibliography. Written by Judith B. Tankard, a landscape historian and preservation consultant, this book is not just a tribute to Farrand’s work but also a celebration of her enduring impact on the field of landscape architecture.
