Being a painting, it is not 100% photorealistic, and some of the minor details are lost. Heck, even a photograph cannot fully capture the majesty of standing in that field and gazing upon those mountains. But what an imitation like this picture can do, is to give people a glimpse of what it is like somewhere else. This would played a much bigger role in the 19th century, where travel took much
