Book info: Nature Pictorialized: The View in Landscape History (Hardcover, 216 pages) – The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1992. Language: English.

Crandell (landscape architecture, Iowa State U.) demonstrates how the principles of her field have drawn extensively from the basic concepts of art and literature, so that a "beautiful" landscape is one that most closely resembles a painting. She traces the subject back to classical times, but emphasizes how 17th-century European painting manifested in 18th-century gardens. Illustrated in black-and-white.
