About This Book
Lucas Pieters Roodbaard (1782-1851) was architect van buitens in de drie noordelijke provincies Drenthe, Groningen en Friesland, waar hij ook woonde en werkte. Hij is als één van de eerste tuinarchitecten uit die tijd verantwoordelijk voor de landschappelijke aanleg van tuinen en parken in de noordelijke provincies. De overgang van de formele naar de landschappelijke aanleg van parken was bepalend voor zijn werk. De ruim 35 tekeningen die bewaard zijn gebleven, geven blijk van zijn ontwerpgedachten. De toelichtende teksten op de tekeningen zijn de enige verwijzingen van zijn hand die nog bewaard zijn gebleven. De landschapsparken die in de periode 1800-1850 in de noordelijke provincies zijn aangelegd, vormen een zeer waardevol en samenhangend erfgoed. Vele parken zijn verdwenen, maar gelukkig is het gehele palet van zijn werken nog (deels) zichtbaar.
Lucas Pieters Roodbaard (1782-1851) was an architect of country houses in the three northern provinces of Drenthe, Groningen and Friesland, where he lived and worked. He was one of the first garden architects of that time responsible for the construction of scenic gardens and parks in the northern provinces. The transition from the formal to the construction of scenic parks was decisive for his work. The more than 35 drawings that have been preserved, demonstrate his design ideas. The explanatory texts on the drawings are the only references of his hand which are still preserved. The landscape parks in the period 1800-1850 in the northern provinces are a valuable and coherent heritage. Many parks have disappeared, but fortunately the entire range of his works still (partially) visible.
