Capability Brown

'Genius', 'master', 'pre-eminent' these are terms used by experts to describe Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, the eighteenth-century landscape designer who wrought a garden revolution in England. For 150 years his activities as a garden designer and architect were largely unrecorded but in recent years a new and vivid interest has arisen in his work. The tale of the garden-boy who rose to fame, riches and friendship of the king is remarkable in itself and some of his splendid achievements are still available for public appreciation.
