What makes a painting a landscape?
1 Answer
The word 'Landscape' regarding the art could potentially refer to one of two things. The first one is that the proportions of the artwork are in a 'rectangular' shape and the largest side has to be placed horizontally. That would be the difference between 'Portrait' (Vertical) vs. 'Landscape' (Horizontal) artwork. And the second meaning could be of what the subject is been referred to. A painting of a 'Landscape' usually portrays a scene in the countryside, it could include elements like mountains, rivers, trees, figures and animals, sky and clouds, and some other elements that are not descriptive of an urban location as this would be referred as a 'Cityscape'
