Definition from About.com:
Bas-relief sculpture is stone sculpture made by chipping away at a slab of rock to make a picture that stands out. It is also called low relief sculpture (bas being the French for 'low') and is contrasted with high relief sculpture where the image stands out further from the surface. The Egyptians, Persians, Greeks and many others have used bas-relief.
Example sentences:

The similarities between it and the earlier Assyrian bass relief of the victory banquet in the palace of the King Ashurbanipal 668-630 B.C. in Nineveh are striking, which proves that the art and traditions in Urhoy were the continuity of the ancient Assyrian ones.

図鑑「世界の美術」、朝日グラフなどで遺跡を見ると、建物や柱に浅い彫刻が施してあるのが分かります。ネットで調べると直接施した物が主ですが、板に施した物を後ではめ込むということもよく行われました。

ロー・リリーフ Or バス・リリーフ

I could not find any professional and/or educational sites hit for using the term of Japanese word. In that case the term might be used as loan word.
In your explanation, introduced as "low relief" and "bath relief" then the Japanese word of ロー・リリーフ Or バス・リリーフ hit a couple sites.
Please check them.
