Description

Chauvet Cave Lions, wax crayon on leather.

Detail of the breathtaking panel of the lions in Chauvet cave, France. Those paintings are over 30,000 years old and their find ended with the idea that cave painting had evolved from basic drawings to its peak in the Magdalenian era, some 15,000 years ago,as seen in Altamira, Lascaux, Niaux or Ekain.

The paintings in Chauvet are for the most part monochrome and feature many different and unusual animals, like lions, hyenas, panthers, bears, and some more usual like horses, aurochs, rhinoceros or mammoth, all of them of extraordinary artistry.

This is a painting on leather with wax crayon I made some years ago. The original is not for sale.
