MODERN GARDENS AND THE LANDSCAPE by Elizabeth B, Kassler, the first book to discuss the relationship between the modern garden and the natural landscape in terms of contemporary aesthetics, was published by The Museum of Modern Art. 
While exploring these interrelationships between man, land and plants, between 
artifacts and natural facts, Mrs. Kassler presents a view of modern water gardens, 
flower gardens, sculpture gardens, outdoor rooms, plazas, parks, playgrounds and 
urban squares illustrated in 115 annotated photographs, six of them in color. 
Among the works illustrated are the daring Mexican lava-landscapes of Luis 
Barragan, the boldly artificial gardens of Roberto Burle Marx in Brazil, the symbolically formal Mughal Gardens in New Delhi by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the delightful parks 
and serene Forest Cemetery in Stockholm, Sweden; the designs of Frank Lloyd Wright, 
Isamu Noguchi, Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, Charles Eames, the men who have formed our 
modern landscape. 
The contemporary landscape designer, heir to the anti-architectural style of 
18th century England — the pastoral parks and picturesque hunting grounds romanticized in poetry and painting — also inherits the classical Western concept of landscape design as architecture as well as the influences of Chinese landscape painting, 
Japanese gardens and Moslem waterworks. From this heritage, Mrs. Kassler concludes 
that the contemporary designer must create in terms of his own place and time, his 
own faith and vision. 
"Should less be demanded of landscape design as an art than as a science?" she 
asks. "Isn't it possible that a garden or plaza or park or boulevard must finally 
be judged as an essay in the tenancy of the earth? If it is to pass such a test ... 
it must appear to be of its place, not on its place, and its natural materials must 
seem to belong together with a more than formal relationship.

It's a good look.
Color: Black/Brown/White, Color: Black/Brown/White
Very nice watch. I was complemented twice in 3 days. It fits well, looks great. I'm trying to look at screens less and teach my kids how to tell time on an analog clock face. 4 stars because, while the strap on the outside looks like it's a nylon/fabric wrist band, the inside is leather. My wrist has gotten pretty sweaty as a result. And there is a VERY audible 'tick' involved with this watch. I'm a contractor and have moderate hearing loss, but I've noticed the tick when I'm sitting quietly in my living room. If a ticking clock drives you nuts, I would not recommend. Most of the time, I am in a locale so noisy, it doesn't matter. They want a jeweler to change the battery, which, as a guy who fixes stuff, I don't love, but I've got some time before I think about that. No pun intended. I'm happy with this purchase. Good for the jobsite or a hot date with my wife.

Most Dependable and Accurate Watch I Have Ever Owned
Color: Black/Brown/White
I bought this watch in August 2022. It is now January 2026. I have worn it almost every day and every night. I mow my yard with it on, wear it for funerals and weddings but always take it off when taking a shower. I have owned many watches in my 77 years including a Rolex but will say this is the finest and most accurate watch I have ever owned. It is not fancy nor flashy but dependable and keeps PERFECT time. It is a timex and I am proud to wear it. My only recommendation is they enlarge the window showing the calendar day and wish they would include the day of the year. Thank you. A+
