よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "sculpture" and "statue." A "statue" is usually a full figure of a person or animal, while "sculpture" is a more general word for any three-dimensional artwork, including statues, abstract pieces, and small figures. Learners also sometimes say *"a sculpture from a man"* when they mean *"a sculpture of a man"*; use "of" to show what the artwork represents.
