The World Heritage Com-
mittee defines cultural land-
scapes as the cultural properties
that represent the combined
works of nature and man.
The Historic Preservation
Division works to pre-
serve these landscapes.
There are three main cat-
egories. Ethnographic
landscapes are identified
by strong artistic, reli-
gious or cultural associa-
tions with a natural ele-"
ment or significant geo-
logic formation.
Manmade cultural land-
scapes include gardens,
parks or other landscapes
constructed for aesthetic
reasons, often associated
with monumental or reli-
gious buildings. The
Washington Monument
in Washington, DC, is a
prime example. Organi-
cally evolved landscapes
illustrate social, eco-
nomic, and administra-
tive forces and their re-
sponse to the natural en-
depicts vironment. These land-
scapes can evolve
through a period of time
and end abruptly or continue to
play a role today.
New Mexico has been
home to and has inspired many
a~'lStS. The Historic Preservation
Division initiated nominations of
artists' homes and studios that
have been listed in the State Reg-
ister of Cultural Properties in
2014 and the National Register
of Historic Places in 2015. They
are the properties of artists Luis
Jimenez and Peter Hurd and
Henriette Wyeth. Previously, the
homes and studios of Georgia
O'Keeffe, and Eanger Irving
Couse and Joseph Henry Sharpe
were listed in the Registers.
