Usually said of a landscape, picturesque means "pretty as a picture, or suitable for a picture." There is no antonym for it, except to say in negation "unlike or unsuitable for a picture," or perhaps "non-photogenic." Many adjectives will serve, however, such as: unattractive, ugly, plain, charmless, dull etc. "We wanted a picturesque alpine village, and we found a squalid slum in the mountains."
