13. Relief SculptureA relief sculpture is a sculpture that is partially carved into or built out of another surface. These sculptures rely on a base or plane to support them and are a combination of both three dimensional and two dimensional art forms. This type of sculpture was very popular along the walls and stone columns of the ancient Greek and Roman buildings and can still be seen today on many of famous buildings, including the Coliseum. Relief sculpture is practiced today by artists and architects.Relief sculptures were done with stone, marble, bronze and many other substances.You will be creating a paper relief sculpture
14. There are three main types of relief sculpturesalto (high)bas (low)and sunkenI will be looking for you to do a combination of high and low relief in your sculpturesThis will be accomplished by building up areas through layering parts on top of one another
15. An alto form is almost completely carved from its surface. Highly shaped, with very little of the structure touching the base or plane. It could possibly stand alone if the base or plane were removed. Egyptians commonly used alto-relief sculptures of gods or Pharaohs attached to their temples. Alto reliefs were also common among Greeks and Romans.

17. A bas form is a relief that barely extends past the base. These are common as wall decorations on Greek or Roman buildings and are the type mostly seen on the Coliseum.
