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. Black bison face to face. 3/5 The discovery of parietal art in Le Portel dates from 1908 (Dr. Rene' Jeannel). There are 3 galleries in all. These Magdalenian bison, face to face, comprise the masterpiece of Le Portel. They follow the classic theme of animals confronting and sniffing at each other, ready for battle or mating. The bison on the right is the more expressive of the two and the more strongly rendered, thanks in par

Description: Le Portel, France. Main Gallery. Magdalenian horse. 23/2 An improvement in the state of the figures is seen as we move toward the interior of the gallery: first the almost-obliterated headless bison, then the "owl," and here this well preserved horse, 21 3/4" in length.; With its lengthened muzzle turned leftward, the mane marked by double lines, and the long tail, the horse belongs to the beginning of the Magdalenian cycle. It carries -- as if they

Description: Le Portel, France. Aurignacian reindeer. 23/5 To the right of the enigmatic "hand" (23/4) and dating from the same Aurignacian phase is this beautiful sketch of a reindeer, also executed in strokes of red. If the lower part ever existed, it is now almost obliterated.; On the other hand, the dorsal line is quite clear, and especially so the magnificent development of the antlers. It is seen head on, although the back suggests an animal in profile.

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: Le Portel, France. Frieze of rhinoceroses. Leaving the main artery of the "Sacred Way" to enter the Breuil Gallery, on the right, the visitor comes upon this great frieze of rhinoceroses. A wide band of marly limestone, some 6' above the floor, emphasized by an upper garland of kidney-stones: such is the setting for the frieze. And this group of three magnificent rhinoceroses, moving toward the right, was to Abbé Breuil the most beautiful of quate
