"Le Cannameliste Français, Ou Nouvelle Instruction Pour Ceux Qui Desirent D'Apprendre L'Office, Rédigé en Forme de Dictionnaire" (1768), by Joseph Gilliers (1658-1758), is an engraved design for a French-style garden. The design features a central fountain surrounded by paths and topiary. The use of intricate scrollwork and decorative elements is typical of the Rococo style, which was popular in France in the 18th century. The image is a valuable resource for understanding the design principles of French gardens during this period.
