I'll take a drawing over a photograph any day. Looking at a drawing is like seeing through the artist's eyes the process of perception, replaying his thoughts, and feeling his reactions. The subjective rendering of light and shadow, perspective, color, depth and detail, brings the scene alive, humanizes it. A good drawing delivers that essential human element--the experience of the place. In a way it's much more accurate than a photograph.
