Was heißt gaine?
- In sculpture, the lower part of a figure of which the head, with sometimes the bust, is alone carved to represent nature, the remaining portion presenting, as it were, the appearance of a sheath closely enveloping the body, and consequently broader at the shoulders than at the feet.
En escultura, la part inferior d'una figura de la qual el cap, de vegades el bust, està sol tallat per representar la natura, la part restant presenta, per dir-ho així, l'aparença d'una funda que envolta estretament el cos i, per tant, més ampla a les espatlles que als peus.
