Specifically, high relief describes the type where more than half of the figures represented in a work extend outwards from a flat surface. Famous examples include the heads on Mount Rushmore and the Ghiberti Doors on the Baptistery in Florence, Italy. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of high-relief sculptures.
