Atlanta puts a spire on top of an office tower more readily than any other city here, and the drawing collects them. Between the two pointed crowns at either end it is the most tightly packed picture in the catalog.
What is in the drawing
The left opens on a slim slab and a bare needle, then a tower finished in a sharp cone, and behind them a run of high-rises pressed hard against each other, one drawn to a pencil point. The roofline steps down in stages to a church front where two spires stand together over a tall pointed arch. From there the line stays low across wide blocks with scalloped frontages until a dome lifts at the center, ribbed and carrying a spike on top. More low buildings and a rounded opening follow, and then the drawing rises a final time into a tower capped by a steep pyramid and a broad crown notched like a set of steps at the far right.
Who buys it
This one goes south to somebody who stayed and north to somebody who did not. Atlanta collects people from the whole region and keeps most of them, so it is bought as a hometown piece far more often than as a holiday souvenir, and the canvas outsells the mug on that reasoning alone.
Mug or canvas
No drawing in this catalog carries more ink than Atlanta. Nearly a fifth of its bounding box is line, and it is packed into the left third where the towers stand almost edge to edge. Small, that reads as a solid mass. Large, the individual buildings separate and you can count them. It is also more compact than the mug band, so it centres with clear margin either side rather than wrapping the full way round, which suits the mug and makes the case for the canvas about detail rather than about width.
