We provide an analysis of the elements needed in an object--oriented scene graph API and give a contrasting, non--competing, exposition of how such elements are implemented in modern graphics and geometry API's. The objectives are to show the sensibility of the adopted design options and to give the flavors, both common and distinct, of various modern scene graph API's.
