Abstract: The concept of landscape is fundamentally important to Geography, so, in the past, this area of knowledge was recognized as the "science of landscape". Currently, despite losing this emphasis, the landscape is still a concept widely used by geographers and scholars from other fields and features a number of opportunities for other approaches and researches. Briefly, the landscape could be understood or as the product of the relationship between man and their environment over time, or the space encompassed within a visual review. As a result, the landscape if it’s properly read can reveal marks and vestiges that are found in current days. Thus, it is important to apprehend the landscape as a historical document. In that matter, the objective of this article is to review the concept of landscape, and how it is discussed by different authors. Furthermore, this research aims to discuss the landscape that goes beyond the contemplation, so it´s understanding could be improved.
