Relief is a kind of sculpture. The sculptor carves the image he wants to shape on a flat plate, making it separate from the plane of the original material. Relief is the product of the combination of sculpture and painting. It deals with objects in a compressed way, and displays three-dimensional space by perspective and other factors. It is only for one side or two sides to see. The reliefs are usually attached to another plane, so they are used more in architecture and can be seen on utensils and implements. Due to its compression characteristics, it occupies less space, so it is suitable for decoration in a variety of environments. In recent years, it has played an increasingly important role in urban beautification.

The themes of the Han Dynasty's stone reliefs fully reflect the real life at that time. 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.
