What is a cityscape in art?
Also called an urban landscape, a cityscape in art is a painting, print, drawing or other representation of an urban area.

It is an artistic representation of the physical aspects of an urban area or cities. Its features are a high population density, extension and major constructions made by human beings: houses, buildings, carts, roads, factories, squares. Lifestyles can also be appreciated.
