What is the connection and difference between Stone Garden Decor and round sculpture

Stone Garden Decor is an art form between round stone carving and painting, and their modeling languages are often integrated with each other to form a unique way of expression. Compared with round stone sculpture, stone sculpture are mostly attached to flat, inclined or arc-shaped bottom plates. Its length and width are generally constant, but its thickness must be compressed and deformed, and the outline of the body is like painting. Round sculptures can be seen from all sides, while stone sculpture are mainly appreciated from the front.

The Stone Carving is an illusion of chiaroscuro created by compressed car body undulations, different turning surfaces and different light receiving surfaces, as well as perspective relationship, horizontal relationship between front and rear, and lines expressing the three-dimensional and spatial sense of the image. So from a certain angle, it has a certain illusion like a painting, but it is similar to a round stone sculpture, it just has a corresponding three-dimensional effect.
On its base plate, some props and backgrounds can be made to create a specific atmosphere that round stone sculpture do not have. Therefore, it expresses the scene more freely than the round stone carving. The development of stone carving art makes the round stone sculpture relatively independent, while the stone sculpture are still immersed in the relationship between the background buildings. Round stone sculpture have a strong and real sense of three-dimensionality and touch, and can independently and relatively completely express the complex spiritual world of an individual's life.
The stone sculpture attached to the ground floor make the group life richly connected, embodying the spiritual connotation of unity and order. Since stone carving is a type of stone carving art, it must first express the characteristics of stone carving art, express the rhythm of the human body and objects, and make it express the whole life. It is not only visual, but also tactile. Secondly, use the advantages of composition theme in painting art to express the content that is not easy to express in round stone sculpture. Such as continuous plot, interspersed = overlapping of different time and space things, etc.
The carving and shaping on the plane make the stone carving techniques have the characteristics of diversity. The restoration of the perspective of the second space, the virtual writing of background and foreground, and the modeling language of stone carving itself form a stone carving art that pays more attention to narrative. The difference between stone sculpture and round sculpture is only plane and three-dimensional, the editing space in the space of stone carving, while the so-called editing space in the ideal space of painting and the actual space of round sculpture are the restrictions on the editing space.
Relying on a flat background, it undercuts the tactility of the round stone sculpture and focuses on the visual arts, sharing more of the illusionistic approach in painting and perspective. Stone carving uses the principles of painting more to deal with space and express volume. The difference in technology and form is only its exterior features. The reflected aesthetic image is completely consistent with the inner spirit of the person reflected by the actual existence of the body.
