A view is a scene observed from a given vantage point... A view must be analyzed and composed with keenly perceptive artistry to utilize even a fraction of the full dramatic potential. Like other landscape features, the view by its handling may be preserved, neutralized, modified, or accentuated... A view is a picture to be framed, an evolving panorama of many blending facets. A view is a theme... A view is a constantly changing mood conveyed by association, light, and color. A view is a limit of visual space. It transcends the boundaries of the site... A view is a backdrop. It may serve as the wall of a garden or as a mural in a room. A view is the setting for architecture.

Abordons [...] le domaine du citadin évadé ou celui du villageois. [...] L'un comme l'autre se trouvent [...] en face d'une donnée commune qui, elle, modifie la conception du jardin. Cette donnée est la campagne, venant souvent au contact même de la propriété et parfois y pénétrant sous l'aspect d'espèces végétales spontanées ou qui caractérisent une région. Une telle situation offre le plus souvent des horizons dégagés vers les champs, les bois, la rivière, etc.
