Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hand Book of Practical Landscape Gardening, Designed for City and Suburban Residences, and Country School-Houses
Woman in all her beauty is rendered even more attractive in a setting of appropriate colors and forms of dress; and woe be to the taste of a blonde who, robing herself in light blue, seeks to decorate for relief with coral ornaments. The opaque red, to use a common phrase, would be dreadful; While the use of a pale pink would light up and dispel the pallid moonshine of the blue, and give to all a rich, pearly, hazy, rosy hue, as of early morn.
