Text Appearing Before Image:
turn below the house. The surface of the lawn is singtilarlypleasing, as it descends towards a natural grove of trees on asteep bank at its southern extremity ; and from the house andits vicinity one does not perceive at all the boundaries of theplace. The accompanying illustrations represent but imper-fectly the results achieved. The first one exhibits the en-trance and the ascending avenue with planted slopes on eitherhand ; the second depicts the house and stable when thefirst plantings were made ; the third the present aspect look-ing towards the house. The fourth illustration shows howplantations not far from the house lead the eye across thebroad sunken highway to the woods and thickets on theneighbors lands. Yet it is only 160 feet from the house tothe highway. All the surfaces and plantings depicted inthese photographs are artificial, yet their effect is natural andaltogether pleasing. ►
