Rock Landscapes: The Pulham Legacy: Rock Gardens, by Claude Hitching
ISBN: 9781870673761 PUBLISHER: Antique Collectors' Club Ltd FORMAT: Hardback PAGES: 320 PUBLICATION DATE: 24.05.2012 DIMENSIONS: 300mmX237mmX35mm 2150grams
DESCRIPTION: This book tells the story of James Pulham & Son, the eminent family of Victorian and Edwardian landscape artists who specialised in the construction of picturesque rock gardens, ferneries, follies and grottoes. The book covers more than four generations of the family business that was also responsible for the manufacture of extremely high-quality terracotta garden ornaments including fountains, vases, sundials and bulastrading. The rock gardens, for which the firm are mainly remembered today, were built with 'artifical' rocks - formed from heaps of old bricks and rubble, coated with cement, and sculpted to simulate the colour and texture of natural stone. The author's interest in James Pulham & Son stems from the fact that no fewer than five of his ancestors worked for the company as 'rock builders'. Features many incredibly famous locations, including Buckingham Palace, Sandringham, Heatherden Hall, Waddesdon Manor, Battersea Park, Friar Park and RHS Garden Wisley.
