Relief in sculpture refers to a technique where the figures are carved out from a flat background, creating a three-dimensional effect while remaining attached to the surface. It can be categorized into high relief, where figures project significantly from the background, and low relief (or bas-relief), where the projection is minimal. Free-standing sculpture, on the other hand, is fully three-dimensional and can be viewed from all angles, designed to be independent of a background or wall. Both forms are integral to the art of sculpture, offering different visual experiences.
