Transporting experience
I was in this garden in March. It is truly a stunningly beautiful, memorable experience. I think the book, despite its small size for a garden picture publication, captures very well the garden's high style and the artistic vision behind it. It does a good job of depicting the creation of the garden, the creator--French painter Jacques Marjorelle (BTW, erroneously attributed to his father, furniture craftsman Louis Marjorelle on the cover's overleaf)--and also the emotion attached to it by co-author Pierre Berge in remembering his life- and professional-partner couturier Yves Saint Laurent's shared peace amid its foliage that inspired them to acquire and restore it. Co-author Madison Cox highlights the horticultural strengths of this seemingly random plan, where the logic was personal, comprised of a collection of plants acquired from all over the world, amassed over many years, all held together visually by the vibrant Marjorelle Blue providing structure. It's a combination that add so much to the garden's and the book's charm.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
