Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The Prussian gardens in Berlin, Potsdam, and Brandenburg are explored through texts and photographs that provide a comprehensive overview of the parks created under the Hohenzollerns over more than three centuries. This collaborative effort involved garden designers, architects, and artists, notably Frederick II and Frederick William IV, who envisioned transforming the landscapes into gardens. Key figures like David Garmatter, Friedrich Christian Glume, and Karl Friedrich Schinkel contributed to this artistic endeavor. The volume highlights the creativity and ambition behind these gardens, reflecting on the challenges faced by designers like Peter Joseph Lenné, who expressed frustration with funding cuts while maintaining high standards of landscape art. The work aims to examine the unique ingenuity found in the gardens of the Hohenzollerns. Hillert Ibbeken, a former geology professor at the Freie Universität Berlin, has a background in architecture and landscape photography, with previous publications on notable architects and regions. Katja Schoene, an art historian and museologist, has worked with the National Trust and the Stiftung Preußische Schlösser und Gärten Berlin-Brandenburg, contributing her expertise to the narrative of these historical gardens.
