Exploring the evergreen appeal of Capability Brown’s grand landscape designs
Blenheim Palace is one of the finest examples of Capability Brown’s work. He transformed grounds around the home of the Dukes of Marlborough (and birthplace of Winston Churchill) in 1763 to create parkland which, although appearing natural, is ‘contrived to pleasing effect’. This map shows the estate in 1835, as drawn by Nicolas Vergnaud in L’Art de Créer les Jardins, etc. - http://www.primeresi.com/exploring-the-evergreen-appeal-of-capability-browns-grand-landscape-designs/75278/
