Information:  - Landscape painting, also known as landscape art, is the depiction in art of landscapes  natural scenery such as mountains, valleys, trees, rivers, and forests, especially 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. Detailed landscapes as a distinct subject are not found in all artistic traditions, and develop when there is already a sophisticated tradition of representing other subjects.   - A landscape is the visible features of an area of land, its landforms and how they integrate with natural or man-made features.  - Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (support base). The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used.  - In painting, staffage, pronounced as in French ([stæffa]), are the human and animal figures depicted in a scene, especially a landscape, that are not the primary subject matter of the work. Before the adoption of the word into the visual arts in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, "Staffage" in German could mean "accessories" or "decoration". The word can be used in two senses: as a general term for any figures in a work, even when they are, at least ostensibly, the main subject, and as a descriptive term for figures to whom no specific identity or story is attached, included merely for compositional or decorative reasons. In the latter sense, staffage are accessories to the scene, yet add life to the work; they provide depth to the painting and reinforce the main subject, as well as giving a clear scale to the rest of the composition.   - Weather is the state of the atmosphere, to the degree that it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy. Most weather phenomena occur in the troposphere, just below the stratosphere. Weather refers to day-to-day temperature and precipitation activity, whereas climate is the term for the statistics of atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time. When used without qualification, "weather" is generally understood to mean the weather of Earth.  - In painting , a capriccio ( Italian pronunciation : ( kapritto ) , plural : capricci ( kapritti ) ; in older English works often anglicized as `` caprice '' ) means especially an architectural fantasy , placing together buildings , archaeological ruins and other architectural elements in fictional and often fantastical combinations , perhaps with staffage of figures . It fits under the more general term of landscape painting . It may also be used of other types of work with an element of fantasy . This genre was perfected by Marco Ricci ( 1676 - 1730 ) but its best - known proponent was the artist Giovanni Paolo Pannini ( 1691 - 1765 ) . This style was extended in the 1740s by Canaletto in his etched vedute ideali , and works by Piranesi and his imitators . Later examples include Charles Robert Cockerell 's A Tribute to Sir Christopher Wren and A Professor 's Dream , and Joseph Gandy 's 1818 Public and Private Buildings Executed by Sir John Soane . The artist Carl Laubin has painted a number of modern capriccios in homage to these works . The term can be used more broadly for other works with a strong element of fantasy . The Capricci , an influential series of etchings by Gianbattista Tiepolo ( 1730s ? , published in 1743 ) , reduced the architectural elements to chunks of classical statuary and ruins , among which small groups made up of a cast of exotic and elegant figures of soldiers , philosophers and beautiful young people go about their enigmatic business . No individual titles help to explain these works ; mood and style are everything . A later series was called Scherzi di fantasia -- `` Fantastic Sketches '' . His son Domenico Tiepolo was among those who imitated these prints , often using the term in titles . Goya 's series of eighty prints Los Caprichos , and the last group of prints in his series The Disasters of War , which he called `` caprichos enfáticos '' ( `` emphatic caprices '' ) are far from the spirit of light - hearted fantasy the term usually suggests . They take Tiepolo 's format of...    After reading the paragraphs above, we are interested in knowing the entity with which 'capriccio ' exhibits the relationship of 'subclass of'.
