It will not do to start on the rendering as soon as the building alone is pencilled out, leaving the accessories to be put in as one goes along. The adjacent buildings, the foliage, and even the figures must be drawn carefully drawn before the pen is taken up.
Its accessories of scenery are certainly superior to those of Niagara in that they are much wilder. The country around is rough, rocky and woody.
