Photography is the only art form in which people still expect the

Jewellers who cut and mount stones, and sculptors in wood and stone,
start with their raw material and reveal what is within it and display
it in an appropriate setting.
Are you sure about *cutting* stones in particular? My impression is
that they plan meticulously and have the end result totally planned
before they make the first actual cut to the stone.
