RESUMO

A study on the presence of french gardeners and landscape designers in South America, from 1820 to 1920, and the relationship between french landscape culture and the nascent art of gardens in Brazil. The first part establishes a frame of reference for the activities of these frenchmen in Argentina, Uruguay, Chile and Brazil, featuring especially the work of Édouard André, Eugène Courtois, Charles Thays, Joseph Bouvard, Pedro Margat, Charles and Louis-Ernest Racine, Édouard Gauthier, Georges Dubois, Grandjean de Montigny, Pierre Pézérat, Charles Pinel, Jean Binot, Auguste Glaziou, Júlio Joly, Ambrósio Perret, Paul Villon, Jules Vacherot and Cochet, among others. The second part investigates the repercussions of the french presence and culture on the first generations of brazilian landscape designers and horticulturists, concentrating on an analysis of the work of Frederico Guilherme de Albuquerque, between 1874 and 1892. This section discusses both the role of this horticulturist from the state of Rio Grande do Sul as editor of the Revista de horticultura (Magazine of horticulture), the first brazilian monthly dedicated to ornamental plants and gardens, as well as his pioneering activities in the introduction and dissemination of ornamental plants.
