"If landscape architecture is the production of refined pleasure through the medium of the eye in fitting land and landscape for human use and enjoyment, then one of the best tests or bases for critical analysis and judgement is the photograph of executed works rather than the presentation of plans.In many cases, photograph show the softening and vitalizing effects of nature in atmosphere and vegetation. These elements are too often forgotten or lost sight of in preparation of the original plan. This brief discussion is presented in the hope that it may enable the reader better to interpret and more fully to enjoy the illustrations."
