Lauder, Thomas Dick. Review of "Sir Uvedale Price on the picturesque" [ID D28710].
Er schreibt : "The Chinese garden, with which [Robert] Fortune's works have now made us familiar, and the English garden, in the form it ultimately assumed, present two distinct types. The one is nature dressed by art ; the other is an artificial imitagion, or rather parody, of nature, cramped and dwarfed to bring her beauties within the compass of a narrow enclosure. The English garden in its failure degenerates into the Chinese."
