stone sculpture
Marble art piece
Stone sculpture is three-dimensional artwork carved or shaped from stone—marble, granite, limestone, or other rock.
The term covers both the art form and individual pieces: The museum's collection includes Greek stone sculpture.
Unlike bronze or clay work, stone sculpture typically involves subtractive process—removing material to reveal the form within.
