Description
Cave Painting
Altamira, 26 may (EFE)
Breaking news from Spain!
Group of archeologists found hidden chamber in the prehistoric cave of Altamira, Spain - World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Recently was discovered a partially blocked passage and after its further excavation, they were led to hidden chamber with cave paintings in perfect condition.
Most striking is a ceiling painting of a bird done with charcoal, ocre and haematite.
Famed archaeologist/adventurer Dr. Henry J. Ones immediately, even without glasses, was able to date the newly discovered painting as a Upper Paleolithic one i.e. about 12,500 years BCE. The bird was of unknown to the ornithologists kind and opened heating debates.
In his excitation Dr. Henry J. Ones began to remove layers of dust and for his great frustration found a signature of a contemporary artist – Stefano ’2011. Also a barely visible text was deciphered as - Entirely done in Ultrafractal 5.04.
As all this was not enough, a quote from famous artist Picasso was found - after Altamira, all is decadence.
Stay tuned for news updates.

Thanks a lot Sharon for this feature! Thanks for reading the story too! There were funny situations on another site. The work was invited in a photo group for World Heritage Sites, and rejected by a fractal group - by saying - we accept only fractals here! LOL, sure all is arranged now:-)
