AI overview

Relief sculpture is a type of carved or cast artwork where figures and scenes project outward from a flat background surface, rather than standing freely in the round. Artists use varying depths—from subtle low relief to deeply carved high relief—to create visual interest and drama, as seen in famous works like the Gates of Paradise in Florence and the friezes on London's Albert Memorial.
