The Hermaitage at Pontoise by Camille Pissarro from 1867 France is shown below. It uses its foreground, middle ground, and background to create depth. It isn't very deep but it is definitely not flat. You can see this in the houses, the shadowing of the trees, and the pathway, as well as the shape of the road. Also, there are many planes covered in this painting, and the land has hills and a lot of character and substance to them.
The View of Laerdalsoren, on the Sognefjord by Themistokles von Eckenbrecher from 1901 Germany is shown below. This landscape also consists of the foreground, middle ground, and background. It shows a lot of depth with the use of the different mountains along the z-plane. The color of water, clouds, placement of rocks, and people, and the boathouses in the distance also greatly add depth to the landscape.
Below is The Old Violin by William Harnett from 1886.It is nor in the National Gallery of Art in Washington. This piece uses shadowing and depth to show placement and layering of this Trompe l'oeil. The shadow on the paper makes the violin seen closer than the objects it is placed on.
