The Culture and Emotion Within Sublime Landscapes

I find it very interesting that the definition of sublime is very connected to culture and historical aspects. My culture would most likely consider a coastal piece of landscape art as sublime. This is a big reason why I very much enjoy viewing and feel a very emotional connection to coastal scenes which display beaches, oceans, and things of that nature. It is also interesting and ironic to note how a sublime image is almost ruined because of the images popularity. However, the emotional aspect of sublime landscapes makes them extremely enjoyable and important.
