The book was commissioned privately to showcase the art collection and also the gardens of the Leeu Collection properties in Franschhoek, Western Cape.

Owner Analjit Singh is a garden and art lover, and his two passions are showcased here in a sumptuous collection of photographs.

Franchesca writes revealingly of the process of designing these gardens, their morphing from private domestic to public hospitality and of the unique visual language developed between herself and the owner. Thus the gardens not only provide a setting for part of the art collection but also reflect Singh’s complex and gymnastic mind.

Available through the Leeu Collection.
