Label TextBest known for her images of gardens, Lennard has photographed the formal gardens of Europe, Zen gardens of Japan, the Imperial gardens of China and informal artist's gardens. Her works explore the relationship between man and nature demonstrated in gardening. Lennard carefully composes her pictures to convey the stillness and peace she experiences in garden spaces. An expert printer, she produces photographs that capture the full range of tones and textures in her subjects.
