DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


        I started with creating all objects in Amapi, my scene only includes
simple objects : about 2000 boxes, spheres and cylinders, trees had been
imported from 3DS files I found in a magazine. Then I have exported the scene
to RIB for rendering with BMRT. Modeling took me about 10 hours.
        Next I have created the statue texture, all the statues are boxes with
an opacity texture that I have made with PaintShopPro (all my texture maps come
from PaintShopPro). For the marble texture of the walls I have created a
composite Renderman shader using the vanilla marble shader and a noisy shader
to give a dirty look to walls, ground and columns.
