Matte Paintings

Mattes are used in photography and filmmaking to insert part of a foreground image onto a background image, which is often a matte painting, a background filmed by the second unit, or computer generated imagery. In modern use, the foreground element is often also computer generated.

*If you consider a composited scene a sandwich, the Matte Painting is the lower bread slice.
