Description: Le Tuc D'Adoubert, France. Bison in clay. In the course of exploring a subterranean river in the Ariége, Max Begouën and his two brothers discovered the Tuc d' Audoubert in 1912. In the middle of a hall situated some 700 yards form the entrance, after a long, narrow and difficult passage, are two bison modeled in clay, the male following the female. This sculptured couple is witness to the magical rites of fecundity, whose purpose it was to assure

Description: Le Portel, France. Ithyphallic design. 2/2 The genesis of this human figuration, done in very rough treatment (it belongs to an early phase of the Aurignaco-Perigordian cycle), carries a strong psychological interest. A stalagmitic relief at right angles to the wall was apparently endowed with a symbolic meaning. This appendage was created a human silhouette, its neck well indicated, its face turned to the left, given life by a finely done eye. T

Description: Le Portel, France. Panel of 5 engraved mammoths. ?/? This masterpiece is on the wall to the right of the Sacred Way, after the forking of the Breuil Gallery. These five mammoths provide a remarkable composition, of which we see here only the central motif: the confrontation of mammoths. Between the two leaders, facing each other, in a classically pyramidal composition a young mammoth is felicitously placed, separating the curvilinear tusks of the t

Description: Le Portel, France. Panel of engraved mammoths (detail). This is the leader of the group to the left. One of the most impressive mammoths of Rouffignac, it is expertly engraved on a marly limestone. The rendering of details is important: the long hairs adorning the farther part of the trunk, the elegance of the large curvilinear tucks, the sardonic expression of the eye. Three spear-thrusts seem to have wounded the beast; this suggests the ritual

Description: Le Portel, France. Five engraved mammoths (detail). This is the second mammoth on the left, actually engraved first, before the leader, since his tusks are converged by the strong dorsal line of the other. This admirable mammoth has been riddled with what appear to be ritual strokes: four on the right flank and one on the forequarters. A long scar cuts across his front, and above it are other arrow-like lines. The undeniable quest for artistic ex

Description: Niaux, France. Salon Noir (III) Bull engraved in clay. 14/10 The clay on the ground was a convenient setting for sketches and even complete engravings. A good number of these must have been effaced by visitors, whether from prehistoric or more recent times.; Here-- in and area to the left of the Salon Noir at the foot of the wall overhanging so as to make passage impossible -- is the engraved sketch of a bull 18 inches long, done in an unquestionabl

Description: Niaux, France. Trout engraved in clay. 17/4 As in the cave of nearby Bedeilhac, these clay surfaces of Niaux are rich in engravings. Unfortunately, casual visitors often failed to recognize them for what they were, trampling and frequently obliterating them. Those engravings which are preserved are the exceptions, an example being this excellent trout, measuring 11 3/4" in length and found on one of the overhangs of this gallery, before coming to t

Description: Niaux, France. The Bison of the "cups". 17/5 One of the major works of Niaux -- indeed, of Quaternary art itself -- is this bison. Engraved in clay, it bears witness to the technique and graphic genius of the Magdalenian artist. In its way this work calls to mind the art of a Matisse, A Picasso, or one of the great Japanese print-makers. Here we see how, on this clay surface, natural cups were formed, little hollows created by drops of water fall

Description: Niaux, France. The Galleries. Bison of the "Cups" detail. 17/6 As noted, one of these cups was chosen; it served to form the globe of the eye, and with this as the probable starting point, the admirable design of a bison unfolded. We have already commented on the sure and expert line, freely engraved in the clay. But equally remarkable is the quality of the design which developed from the point-of-departure of the natural "eye," the cup. Inspire
