The '''landscape comma''' ({{monzo|legend=1| -4 6 -6 3 }}, [[ratio]]: 250047/250000) is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[7-limit]] [[comma]] with a size of 0.33 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which three [[63/50]]'s exceed an [[octave]], the amount by which three [[225/224|septimal kleismas]] fall short of the [[Pythagorean comma]], and also the difference of [[2401/2400]] and [[4375/4374]], the two smallest 7-limit [[superparticular ~~interval|superparticular~~ commas]].

This comma was named by [[Yahya Abdal-Aziz]] in 2005, referring to landscape painting where there is a three-layer technique, which in turn was a reference to [[Gene Ward Smith]]'s description of the comma as the ''three-layer comma''<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_58180.html#58217 Yahoo!
