Morphology
The meaning 'a painting that depicts natural scenery' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'landscape' (natural scenery) with 'painting' (a painted artwork). This noun+noun composition is a common, literal pattern across languages and follows regular English compounding rules, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Landscape painting comes from the words land and scape, where scape once meant a 'view' or 'scene' of the land. So a landscape painting is a picture that shows natural scenery like hills, trees, and rivers.
