The beauty of Provence has attracted many famous artists and writers over the centuries. Today several contemporary artists have homes in Provence, and many of them have applied their artistic sensibilities to the creation of their gardens. This lavishly illustrated book presents the gardens of Tomek Kawiak, Peter Klasen, Henri Olivier, Dominique Lafourcade, Helga Lannon, Arman, and Sacha Sosno among the more than 20 artists’ gardens.

The gardens range in style from a modern amphitheater and a painted jungle to an ancient grove and an African dream. A distinctive look at garden design in France today, this is a book that will delight gardeners everywhere.
