Week3-Reflection

This week's lecture was about "Picturesque", I've learned a few theories of that how to create a picturesque landscape. The Repton's guidelines rules made me very impressive and I found it was really helpful: A picturesque landscape was divided by 3 parts-A foreground; A middle ground; A background.

  • A foreground: regular, geometrical and designed for human use.
  • A middle ground: a serpentine park in the manner of Lancelot Brown.
  • A background: natural scenery, as little affected by man as possible.
I plan to use these rules to apply on creating my picturesque island.
