One of my favorite artists' is M. Scott I collect paintings of his I am into landscape pictures. I enjoy Nature's beauty. One of the earliest forms of art are lanscape art.  One reason I took this course is I enjoy art, and wish to discover more realms of art. I love when mountains, trees or other natural features are included. Both the Roman and Chinese traditions typically show grand panoramas of imaginary landscapes, generally backed with a range of spectacular mountains – in China often with waterfalls and in Rome often including sea, lakes or rivers. Landscape backgrounds for various types of painting became increasingly prominent and skillful during the century  Lanscape Art is a term that covers the depiction of natural scenery such as mountains, valleys, trees, rivers, and forests, and especially art where the main subject is a wide view, with its elements arranged into a coherent composition. In other works landscape backgrounds for figures can still form an important part of the work. Sky is almost always included in the view, and weather is often an element of the composition. In China Landscape Art means pure, or without flaw. Water is an important element in the Chinese lanscape traditions. Landscape painting has been called "China's greatest contribution to the art of the world.". There are increasingly sophisticated landscape backgrounds to figure subjects showing hunting, farming or animals from the  onwards. This is seen especially in the Han Dynasty. The website I found in which I have a similar picture in my living room is  en.allexperts.com.
