Bas-relief sculpture

Bas-relief is a type of sculptural art where figures or designs are carved into a flat surface, projecting slightly from the background. The depth of the carvings is shallow, creating a subtle three-dimensional effect. This technique is often used in architectural decorations, coins, and medals, allowing images to stand out while remaining attached to their background. Unlike free-standing sculptures, bas-relief is designed to be viewed from the front and can be integrated into walls or surfaces, combining artistic detail with durability and functional use.
