Description:

This essay on the 'kare-sansui' garden focuses on the Chinese antecedents and affiliations with Taoist ideas and Chinese landscape painting. It considers the roles of Shinto and Zen Buddhism in the evolution of the garden, and the fact that the lowest labouring classes created its highest examples.
