Relief is a sculptural technique in which figures or patterns are raised from a flat background while remaining attached to it. Depending on how far the forms project, it can be classified as low relief, high relief, or sunken relief. This method is used in architecture, monuments, coins, and decorative arts to create visual depth and storytelling on walls, facades, or panels. Relief combines aspects of both two-dimensional and three-dimensional art, allowing artists to show complex scenes with a relatively shallow physical depth, often enhanced by light and shadow.
