Etymology

The term 'landscape' originates from the Dutch word 'landschap', which referred to a specific portion of land, especially rural settings. It was initially used in the context of painting and artistry to describe scenes that depicted natural scenery. Over time, particularly in the 19th century, the term began to encompass the physical alteration of land for aesthetic purposes. 'Landscaped' as a verb emerged alongside this evolution, indicating the active involvement in shaping and designing outdoor spaces. The practice of landscaping became more structured with the emergence of landscape architecture as a profession in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, influenced by naturalists and garden designers. Today, landscaping is not only a profession but also a popular hobby that emphasizes ecological sustainability and artistic expression.
