There is yet another classification of images into three kinds as *chitra*, *chitrārdha* and *chitrābhāsa*.* *Chitra* denotes images in the round with all their limbs completely worked out and shown. *Chitrārdha* is the name given to figures in half-relief, and *chitrābhāsa* refers to images painted on walls and cloths, and such other suitable objects.
