What is "foreground"?

Foreground is the part of a scene, painting, or image that appears closest to the viewer. It often includes the main subjects or objects that are meant to be the focus of the visual work. By drawing attention to these important details, the foreground helps create depth and perspective in art and photography, contrasting with the background, which is further away.

What is "background"?

Background is the part of a scene, painting, or image that appears farthest from the viewer or the back section of a visual work. It typically includes elements that create the mood or provide context but are not the main focus. The background helps create depth and perspective by contrasting with the foreground, which is closer to the viewer and often contains the main subjects or objects.
