Excerpt from Joseph Pennell's Pictures of the Wonder of Work: Reproductions of a Series of Drawings, Etchings, Lithographs, Made by Him About the World, 1881-1915 It is far easier to paint a heavenly host or a dream city in one's studio than to make a decoration out of a group of miners, or to draw a rolling mill in full blast.
