Sculpture

The art of small sculpture is rooted in antiquity; it goes back to prehistoric totems and anthropomorphic figures. The variety of styles, techniques, media, and of application is enormous. Today, too, it is a thriving art form in which much has been achieved. Yet a clear definition of what is or is not small sculpture eludes us. The only criterion that is generally agreed upon is that the maximum height is somewhere in the region of 80 — 100 cm.
