Relief works of art are a type of sculpture where three-dimensional forms are created on a plane, protruding or recessed into it. The main types include bas-relief (the image protrudes less than half of its volume), high-relief (protrudes more than half, almost breaking away from the background) and counter-relief (the image recesses into the plane).
