Egyptian Gardens Alison Daines he gardens of ancient Egypt were an integral component of their religion Tand surroundings. The gardens cannot be excavated like buildings and tombs can be, but archeological relics remain that have helped determine their construction, function, and symbolism. Along with these excavation reports, representations of gardens and plants in painting and text are available (fig. 1).1 These portrayals were frequently located on tomb and temple walls. Assuming these representations were based on reality, the gardens must have truly been spectacular. Since the evidence of gardens on excavation sites often matches wall paintings, scholars are able to learn a lot about their purpose.2 Unfortunately, despite these resources, it is still difficult to wholly understand the arrangement and significance of the gardens. In 1947, Marie-Louise Buhl published important research on the symbol- ism of local vegetation. She drew conclusions about tree cults and the specific deity that each plant or tree represented. In 1994 Alix Wilkinson published an article on the symbolism and forma- tion of the gardens, and in 1998 published a book on the same subject.

  • Garden Events
    DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS Call for applications GARDEN EVENTS 2021 Listed as a “Historic Monument” (Monument Historique) and recognised as a “Remarkable Garden” (Jardin Remarquable) in 2005, Wesserling Park is testimony to an extraordinary textile adventure in a valley of the River Thur in the Upper Vosges. This unique site is a former “Royal Textile Printing Factory” with an incredible number of preserved buildings linked to the textile industry. The gardens have been landscaped ever since the site was first managed and the château was built. They were originally created as ornamental gardens for the enjoyment of captains of industry, bearing witness to the landscaping conventions of the various centuries. Later they were steadily turned into vegetable gardens for workers, and then abandoned, before being gradually restored. Each year for almost 18 years, designers, visual artists and landscapists have brought life to these gardens, producing temporary creations which surprise, question and enchant summer visitors. Over the past two springs, professional and amateur photographers have opened our eyes to the world with their emotionally charged photos. For this new season, we would like to offer a triple view of the site through: - a spring photo exhibition, - plastic installations ready at the opening, - and the perpetuation of our Festival des Jardins Métissés (mixed gardens Festival) during the whole summer period. Once again this year, you are offered a new theme. It again focuses on highlighting the site’s values, between respect for the past and innovation, putting the emphasis on heritage and offering interactive games for our visitors, new artistic creations and sustainable development.

  • Landscape Style – Formal and Informal-Types of Garden – Egyptian
    Landscape Style – formal and informal-Types of garden – Egyptian , Roman, Chinese, Hindu- Buddhist Mughal and Japanese Formal And Informal Landscaping Formal Landscaping Formal landscaping is best described as structured, orderly, perfect or clean. Hedges are often used in formal landscaping. Some hedges are straight, some have curves, but they tend to have a great sense of symmetry and balance. Formal gardening attempts to fight with nature to make it stay growing and stay perfect. This image of a Formal Landscape Example is a Garden Design that fits a formal colonial home- the hedges are equally spaced on both sides of the walk. The planting design is symmetrical and both sides of the walk match. FORMAL GARDEN AT RASHTRAPATI BHAWAN, DELHI MUGHAL GARDEN AT TAJ MEHAL , AGRA Informal Landscaping Informal landscaping is more relaxed than formal landscaping. If hedges are used at all, they are not sheared flat, but instead they are left fluffy and soft. Informal landscaping is more in-step with nature, it looks more natural. Informal Landscaping include the organic form. GARDEN DESIGN A garden is a planned space, usually outdoors, set aside for the display, cultivation, and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature. The garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials. Gardens include- Residential garden, Zoological garden, Botanical garden, Zen Garden, Xeriscape Garden etc. The history of ornamental gardening may be considered as aesthetic expressions of beauty through art and nature, a display of taste or style in civilized life, an expression of an individual's or culture's philosophy, and sometimes as a display of private status or national pride—in private and public Landscapes.
