figurines (<sculpture by subject type>, sculpture (visual works), ... Visual and Verbal Communication (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Three-dimensional works that represent humans, animals, or mythical beasts at less than half life-size. While the term may be used interchangeably with "statuette" in certain situations, it differs in that a statuette is always free-standing while a figurine may be part of a larger work, such as a decorative detail on a candelabra or mirror.

Additional Notes:
Arabic ..... الأعمال ثلاثية الأبعاد التي تمثل البشر أو الحيوانات أو الوحوش الأسطورية بحجم أقل من نصف الحجم الطبيعي. في حين أنه يمكن استخدام المصطلح بالتبادل مع "تمثال صغير" في مواقف معينة، إلا أنه يختلف في أن التمثال الصغير يكون دائمًا قائمًا بذاته بينما قد يكون التمثال جزءًا من عمل أكبر، مثل التفاصيل الزخرفية على الشمعدانات أو المرآة. 
Dutch ..... Sculpturen die mensen of dieren voorstellen die niet groter zijn dan de helft van de ware grootte. 
German ..... Dreidimensionales Werk, das Menschen, Tiere oder mythologische Wesen in weniger als halber Lebensgröße darstellt. Der Begriff kann in bestimmten Situationen mit “Statuette” austauschbar sein, unterscheidet sich aber darin, dass eine Statuette immer freistehend ist, während Figurinen auch Teil eines größeren Werks, wie ein dekoratives Detail an einem Kerzenleuchter oder Spiegel, sein können. 
Portuguese ..... Trabalhos tridimensionais que representam humanos, animais ou seres míticos com metade do tamanho real, pelo menos. Enquanto o termo pode ser intercambiavelmente usado com "estatueta" em certas situações, se difere na situação em que uma estatueta não é apoiada por outra estrutura, ao passo que uma estátua pode ser parte de um trabalho maior, como um detalhe decorativo em um candelabro ou espelho. 
Spanish ..... Esculturas que representan humanos o animales y que presentan la mitad o menos del tamaño natural.
