Questions About Carved Relief
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    The three types of relief sculptures are low relief (the motifs are very slightly raised above the surface), high relief (the sculpture protrudes at least half of its own height from the surface) and sunken relief (the sculpture is actually below the surrounding surface).
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    There are three types of relief in sculpting: high, sunken and bas. The difference between the type of reliefs is how deeply carved the figures are on the surface. Shop a wide range of collectable sculptures on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Carved in high relief means that a sculpture has a certain type of carving. Specifically, high relief describes the type where more than half of the figures represented in a work extend outwards from a flat surface. Famous examples include the heads on Mount Rushmore and the Ghiberti Doors on the Baptistery in Florence, Italy. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of high-relief sculptures.
