This makes the artwork look almost flat but still gives it a bit of depth and a 3D feel.<strong>Key Points:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Depth<\/strong>: The figures don&#8217;t stick out much, unlike high relief where they can be almost fully 3D.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Technique<\/strong>: Artists carve the material to create different layers, making it look like there&#8217;s depth while keeping it mostly flat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>History<\/strong>: Bas-relief has been around for ages, used by ancient cultures such as the Assyrians, Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans.\n<p><div id=\"attachment_18208\"
