The Topiary Garden

 

This garden in Columbus, Ohio, depicts Georges Seurat’s A Sunday Afternoon On the Ile De La Grande Jatte. I love not only the idea for this unique garden, but also its execution; I hope you find a bit of inspiration, for your own garden — I know I left here with my head swimming in what might be possible!

 

The people and boats on the lake.

The (Black) Dog!

 

The couple near the lake, toward the left of the red umbrella.

 

I am just not sure — what do you think?

 

The little girl looking out at the water?

 

The reclining man, woman, dog, and man with cane.

 

Is this the monkey?

 

The bronze plaque stands on an easel, in front of the topiary pieces.
