It is the manipulation of size and space in a picture to emphasize importance of a specific object.

In basic, if you were to paint a picture of a girl in a field of flowers blowing bubbles, you could do a number of things.

If you wanted the bubbles to be the most important thing in the picture, you would make the bubbles larger and bring them forward so the girl would not be the focus.

If you wanted the girl to be the focus, you would make sure the girl was larger and the bubbles and flowers were smaller. You would do the same to the flowers to make them the focus instead.
