The Garden at Night:
Private Views of Public Edens


"Every evening we ride the spinning earth into a mysterious domain – the kingdom of night. This realm is filled with wonders, yet its treasures go largely unseen because we are prisoners of light. The twilit garden, like the night forest, is a realm of the exotic and the unknown.”
                                                                                                  — Christopher Dewdney —

Noted photographer, Linda Rutenberg has laid claim to her own province in this enchanted domain in the book The Garden at Night: Private Views of Public Edens released by Chronicle Books in the Fall of 2007.

This nocturnal photographic journey which includes books, exhibitions and limited edition prints crosses Canada, The United States and England and invites you to visit the most awe-inspiring public gardens at a time of day that up until now has remained inaccessible.

All images are available for sale as limited edition prints.
