Answer:

D. Atmospheric perspective

Step-by-step explanation:

Atmospheric perspective, also known as aerial perspective. In art, but mainly in painting, this term refers to a technique, whereby it is possible to create the illusion of distance and depth between objects by applying certain techniques that involve the use of color, value, and sharpness of the objects represented. Atmospheric perspective is the visual effect of light as it passes through the atmosphere. In this painting, Pieter Brueghel introduce us to a snowed village and a group of hunters. You can feel the portrayed environment, the cold snow, the storm that is approaching (represented by the clouds), and the hurry of the hunters to reach their homes. This is possible because Bruegel could represent nature and light with precision.
