is this statement about RELIEF SCULPTURE true or false?
I cannot figure it ouut
A basic category of sculpture called “relief” is one that is more pictorial: the image is developed outward or inward from a basic plane, meaning it is partly attached to its original material.
That is definitely true. Check out the link for photos and descriptions of the different types of relief, such as sunken relief (intaglio), low relief (bas-relief) or high relief (alto-relievo) — they will show how the “image is developed outward or inward from a basic plane.”
