HENDERSON’S PICTURESQUE 
GARDENS 
A Russian Garden 
Gate 
The view above is repro- 
duced from a photograph 
of a garden entrance in 
Russia. The ornamental 
iron gates and fence, the 
tastefully carved stone gate- 
posts with the cut - stone 
fence base add to the im- 
pression of substantial ele- 
gance. The well-filled vases, 
giving an attractive finish 
to the gate-posts, produce 
a pleasing effect, and all 
combine into an ideal ap- 
proach. 
An Artistic Entrance 
The beautifully fashioned gates in our large engraving 
attest the skill of the iron -worker in their graceful 
design, which is in charming harmony with the entrance, 
the airy surroundings and balustrade - broken boundary 
wall. 
The grouping of the trees shown in this picture is 
worthy of especial notice. Diversity of form, color of foliage, light and 
shade, and open vistas here play an important part in creating a beautiful 
living picture.
