Key:sculpture_type

This tag describes the type of a sculpture more precisely.

Current usage is ambiguous, as some tags describe the material (consider material=* instead), such as bronze), others describe the subject (e.g., dolphin) and others describe something more akin to a traditional typology of sculpture (e.g., bust, frieze, bas-relief)
