Sylvan or Sylvans (from the Latin silva: "forest, woods") can have one of the following meanings:
A countryside scene
The term "A Sylvan Scene" is used to describe a beautiful and idealised scene in the countryside.
Historical reference: John Milton used these words in Paradise Lost (1667) to describe “A Steep Wilderness”:
“Cedar, and pine, and fir, and branching palm,
A sylvan scene, and as the ranks ascend
Shade above shade, a woody theater
Of stateliest view.”
Current reference: Collins dictionary: Sylvan describes an association with woods and trees.
