Festing, Sally Gertrude Jekyll
New York, New York, U.S.A. Viking Pr 1992 0670827886 / 9780670827886 Hard Cover Fine Fine
Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Illustrated. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine, clean pages. Illustrated. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 323 pages. In this remarkable biography, Sally Festing shows us how impressions of Gertrude Jekyll have become distorted in the popular imagination: how her real contribution to garden design is underrated, especially in the profound influence she was to have upon the architect Sir Edwin Lutyens. The plain, myopic figure who stares sternly from Victorian photographs was, the author suggests, altogether more complicated, abrasive, autocratic, impatient, fun-loving, and lovable than she was ever made out to be. An illuminating portrait of a formidable and admirable woman.
