The sculptures in the Tang and Song dynasties certainly exceeded those in the Han Dynasty, but the works of the Tang and Song dynasties never fully reflected the reality as the Han Dynasty stone reliefs did. The handicraft industry and commerce in the Ming Dynasty were improved compared with those in the Tang and Song Dynasties, but few sculptures in the Ming Dynasty fully displayed the characteristics of each work as in the Song Dynasty. Although the sculpture of the Ming Dynasty is not as good as that of the Tang and Song Dynasties, other artistic achievements of the previous dynasties are naturally behind.
