Twmps : 9781854112859 : 08 May 2001 : "This beautifully produced book is sculptor David Nash's response to the 300-year-old yews in the gardens of Powis Castle. After decades?in some cases centuries?without trimming some 20 yews by the castle have grown into fantastic, organic shapes not usually associated with the formally trained yews of traditional gardens. The plasticity of these striking trees instantly challenged Nash when he first saw them: now the resulting drawings, reliefs, and sculptures are collected here, together with a brief essay by Nash and a short history of the Powis Castle gardens by art historian Sarah Blomfield. The text is bilingual, in English and Welsh."
