mountain scene

Peak and valley

A mountain scene is a visual depiction of mountains—in painting, photography, or film.

The phrase emphasizes the picturesque or dramatic quality of the landscape: The calendar featured mountain scenes from the Rockies.

It can also describe an actual view: We pulled over to admire the mountain scene below.
