The Glasshouse by John Hix – Phaidon Architecture History and Garden Photo Book
About the Item
The Glasshouse traces the evolution of glass enclosures from the mid-17th century when the desire to nurture exotic plants in a foreign climate led to the development of the glasshouse capable of creating its own artificial microclimate. The Glasshouse is richly illustrated from a wealth of historic and contemporary etchings, lithographs and photographs. It will appeal to the specialist and the enthusiastic gardener alike.
