About 410 years ago, Shakespeare wrote in The Second Part of King Henry the Fourth:
Like one that draws the model of a house
Beyond his power to build it; who, half through,
Gives o’er and leaves his part-created cost
A naked subject to the weeping clouds,
And waste for churlish winter’s tyranny.
I.iii.58..62
And a lovely addition to the landscape for the rest of us!
