An illustration of Donnell Garden

Donnell Ranch Garden[1][circular reference][2] is considered one of the masterpieces of modern landscape design,[3] and one of the first examples of the now-ubiquitous kidney shaped swimming pool.[4] It was constructed in 1948 at the Donnell Ranch in Sonoma, California, by landscape architect Thomas Church.
