landscape scenes

Nature view depictions

Landscape scenes are visual depictions of natural or outdoor environments, typically featuring terrain, sky, vegetation, and sometimes water or architectural elements.

The term appears most often in art and photography contexts, describing works that capture broad views of countryside, mountains, coastlines, or other expansive settings.

The gallery featured landscape scenes from the American Southwest.

Unlike portraits or still lifes, landscape scenes emphasize the environment itself as the primary subject rather than people or objects.
