Frustrated by what he saw as the over-grooming prevalent in British landscape gardening and associated with the work of Capability Brown, Uvedale Price (1747-1829) published this essay in 1794. He emphasises here the importance of naturalism and harmony with the surrounding environment.

In 1795, the landscape gardener Humphry Repton (1752-1818) published a letter addressed to Uvedale Price (1747-1829) which disputed some of the points in Price's 1794 essay on the connection between landscape painting and landscape gardening. This 1798 second edition of Price's reply includes Repton's letter.
