Painting, broadly speaking, is a visual art. Visual art refers to the arts that occupy space and present visible forms for appreciation. It generally means the plastic arts, other than architecture. The term "visual art" first appeared in Europe in the 17th century, though some believe it was officially coined in the mid-18th century. In modern times, Japan rendered the term using Chinese characters, and it spread to China around the time of the May Fourth Movement, where it came into common use. It is also called "plastic art." Depending on their purpose, the arts can be divided into two broad categories: fine art and applied art. Chinese landscape painting, often simply called "landscape painting," is a form of Chinese painting whose main subject is natural scenery. It took shape during the Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasties.
