The movie was originally inspired by Peter Greenaway's attempts to draw a house he'd rented for a vacation and finding that the sun rising/falling changed the shadows and appearance too rapidly for a drawing to be completed in one sitting. He thus spent a specific period each day drawing the house from a specific angle (like the draughtsman in the movie).
Director Peter Greenaway, a former art student, created the sketches that feature in the film.
The camera moves only a few times during tracking shots; otherwise, every shot is still.
The close-up shots of the draughtsman drawing are of Peter Greenaway's hands.
Composer Michael Nyman's music score featured modernized arrangements of seventeenth-century English composer Henry Purcell.
"Mr. Neville: You must forgive my curiosity, madam, and open your knees."
"Mr. Neville: Why is that dutchman waving his arms about? Is he homesick for windmills?"
