Not a Bas-relief
[edit]This relief is described as a bas-relief, but according to me this is (as the figure is almost in the round) a high relief, or at best in between those. See for comparison for example:
this picture on the right of a tree of life, which in my opinion is a true bas-relief. --Satrughna (talk) 19:35, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
Bas Relief,
Absolutely right, the image on the previous page is an example of high relief and the image should be removed or changed. There's too much confusion on this point in the schools and displaying a misleading image like the one of the figure only exacerbates the problem. R Poniatowski MFA
At best the cherub in the background is bas-relief
