All four sculptures are created from an [[art bench]] using {{Icon Small|stuff}} [[Wood]], [[Stone|Stony]], or [[Metal]]lic ingredients. Counterintuitively, stone sculptures are not made from stone [[chunk]]s, but from [[stone block]]s.

Small sculptures require 50 materials and {{Ticks|18000}} of work, large sculptures require 100 materials and {{Ticks|30000}} of work, and grand sculptures require 400 materials and {{Ticks|105000}} of work. Note that [[small volume material]]s ([[silver]] and [[gold]]) require ten times more items to create.
  
 
The sculptor's [[Artistic]] skill is the primary factor in determining the sculptures' [[quality]]. A sculptor cannot work on another sculptor's piece.

The three sculptures in Core have a high [[beauty]] rating, which depends on the sculpture size, material, and [[quality]]. [[Terror sculpture]]s do not increase beauty, but instead increase [[suppression]] of [[slave]]s.{{IdeologyIcon}}

== Summary ==
 
+
Sculptures have a high [[beauty]] rating, which depends on the sculpture size, material, and [[quality]]. For the same material and quality, a small sculpture has half the beauty of a large sculpture, which has 4x less beauty than a grand sculpture. Small and large sculptures take 1 tile, and grand sculptures take a 2x2 grid of tiles. Also, all sculptures have a 1.1x [[Sell Price Multiplier]], making them sell for more when compared to other items of the same [[market value]].

All sculptures will have a name and story, like items of excellent or higher qualities. See [[#Story Generation]] below for more details.

Other than these rooms, place art where pawns will stay for a long time, such as work stations. For extra efficiency, you can combine these rooms to make the most out of the sculptures. If Dining, Recreation, and Work all happen in the same room, then the same sculpture can apply to all 3 rooms, in addition to the general increase to Wealth.

=== Which sculpture to create ===
 
=== Which sculpture to create ===
An initial consideration is the material the sculpture is to be constructed from - some materials, namely {{#ask: [[Beauty Offset::>0.000001]]}}, have a beauty offset. This offset is added after the beauty multiplier and only applied once per item. As such, there is an advantage in beauty per tile for large sculptures over grand sculptures when made of one of those materials. For example, Jade has beauty factor of {{Q|Jade|Beauty Factor}} and an offset of {{Q|Jade|Beauty Offset}}. As such a Jade grand sculpture would have a total beauty of ({{Q|Grand sculpture|Beauty Base}} × {{Q|Jade|Beauty Factor}}) + {{Q|Jade|Beauty Offset}} or {{#expr:{{Q|Grand sculpture|Beauty Base}}*{{Q|Jade|Beauty Factor}}+{{Q|Jade|Beauty Offset}}}}. Conversely, the {{#expr: {{Q|Grand sculpture|Resource 1 Amount}}/{{Q|Large sculpture|Resource 1 Amount}}}} large sculptures you could construct with the same materials would have a total beauty of {{#expr:({{Q|Grand sculpture|Resource 1 Amount}}/{{Q|Large sculpture|Resource 1 Amount}}) * ({{Q|Large sculpture|Beauty Base}}*{{Q|Jade|Beauty Factor}}+{{Q|Jade|Beauty Offset}})}}. In a similar vein, there is an advantage in beauty per material for small sculptures and, to a lesser extent, large sculptures. The effects of this offset are most visible at lower qualities, and the other factors in choosing a sculpture size are usually more relevant, however, it should be considered if one of the aforementioned materials will be used.

Small sculptures are the worst for beauty. For each point of beauty, they require the most work and take up the most space. Yet, because small sculptures take the most work, they have the highest [[Market Value]] per material. Therefore, small sculptures are the most profitable to sell (per material). Small sculptures also have another advantage when selling: [[quality]] is a multiplier to market value, but can only increase value up to a flat cap. Small sculptures, especially of [[gold]] or [[silver]], are less impacted by the cap than the larger sculptures. Plus, traders likely won't have enough money to afford a masterwork grand sculpture.

Conversely, large and grand sculptures are better to actually place around your base. Both are equally as space efficient (before rounding). You can place 4 large sculptures in 4 separate locations, as opposed in a grand sculpture needing a 2x2 space. This makes large sculptures a better solution for bedrooms and other smaller rooms, and a more flexible option generally.

Making grand sculptures exhibits a greater risk - if it turns out awful, you've had wasted 4 sculpture's worth of time. Conversely, grand sculptures are the best when you have [[inspiration#inspired creativity|inspired creativity]], assuming you can actually complete it. It may be wise to work on a grand sculpture, suspend it before it's completed, and finish it once the inspiration hits. Grand sculptures are also the most wealth efficient way to provide beauty of all sculptures, due to the aforementioned market value cap. A [[gold]] grand sculpture costs {{Market Value Calculator|Grand sculpture|Gold|Normal}} {{Icon Small|Silver}} at Normal quality and {{Market Value Calculator|Grand sculpture|Gold|Legendary}} {{Icon Small|Silver}} at Legendary quality, an increase of {{#expr:{{Market Value Calculator|Grand sculpture|Gold|Legendary}}-{{Market Value Calculator|Grand sculpture|Gold|Normal}}}} {{Icon Small|Silver}}. Four large sculptures would cost {{#expr: 4*{{Market Value Calculator|Large sculpture|Gold|Normal}}}} {{Icon Small|Silver}} at Normal quality and {{#expr: 4*{{Market Value Calculator|Large sculpture|Gold|Legendary}}}} {{Icon Small|Silver}} at Legendary quality, an increase of {{#expr: 4*{{Market Value Calculator|Large sculpture|Gold|Legendary}}- 4*{{Market Value Calculator|Large sculpture|Gold|Normal}}}} {{Icon Small|Silver}}.</onlyinclude>
