Featured Wood carving of Li Tai Guai, help please

Howdy everyone. I've done the Google thing with this, Google tells me it is a wood carving of Chinese immortal Li Tai Guai and it is called a "scene". It measures 11 1/4" wide, 12" tall and 2" thick. It is made of 2 pieces, the base is screwed to the scene using slotted screws. Google found 1 identical carving, right down to the darker color of the lower portion. Is it a frieze, a scene or just a carving? I've tried to find other similar pieces to establish a value so I can price it but I just need to know what to call it.



Thanks everybody! Linda

 

Wood carving of Li Tai Guai,..... seems about right ....!

 

Relief carving probably most accurate, but not necessarily the best description to catch the eye of a potential buyer. I would not call it a frieze.

 

Diorama seems to be at least marginally appropriate.

 

Thank you everyone. It will be going to one of my booths once I figure out what it should sell for. I will poetically use "Relief Carving" as descriptor on the tag.

It'll be a relief............once it sells !

 

You could get really poetic & say figures of ___ carved in high relief.

 

I would also add the alternative spelling of the name: Li Tieguai.
And good luck!

 

I love it. That said, I wouldn't want to dust it!

 

Thanks, folks.

Linda
