Question

Is the use of paintings an effect way to study geography?

Answer 1

Representing geographic facts in painting will take so much effort as compared with photography, particularly video cameras.

The student might  b e able to learn from the paintings, but what is needed is a system that allows us to provide course materials that do not take forever to produce. That argues strongly for  a lot of use of almost automatic capture.

When we are conveying a composite that can not readily be captured directly, a painting might be superior.

Answer 2

in my view, it is quite effective but it will be better to use maps. paintings is more likely just conveying a message so not really effective but quite. i still recommend the use of maps and the study of other social sciences related to geography.
