Come to think of it, it is more likely that Clifford Webb was interpreting ideas given to him by AR than that AR followed Webb.
One thing that does strike me is that AR's pictures suggest a bigger space than Webb's - AR's spaces are vast - the lake is an inland sea, Horseshoe Cove is a big bay, the mountains are huge and the moors go on for ever.
But that is exactly as the eye of childhood sees them.
