How does a landscape artist make an object in the foreground appear closer than an object in the background?

• by making the object in the foreground larger in comparison the background objects
• by making the object in the foreground less detailed in comparison to background objects
• by making the object in the foreground less colorful in comparison to background objects
• by making the object in the foreground smaller in comparison to background objects

The correct answer is by making the object in the foreground larger in comparison to the background objects. This technique is called "relative size" and it creates the illusion of depth and distance in a landscape painting. By making the foreground object larger, it appears closer to the viewer, while the smaller background objects appear farther away.
