Reviews
"Art, as this book makes beautifully clear, is a fundamental part of the human condition... [An] accessible and well-organised book... This book [...] should please anybody interested in either art or prehistory... And, in our fast-paced 21st-century world where art is so often equated with ephemeral values, it's salutary to be reminded of painting's enduring place in a society that lasted five times longer than the whole of recorded history."--Art World "This sumptuous book improves on the reality: there are almost 250 photographs here, showing some of the finest examples of this mysterious underground art... If you want to really pore over this magnificent prehistoric artistic tradition, this is the book for you."--BBC History Magazine, "Art, as this book makes beautifully clear, is a fundamental part of the human condition...

Synopsis
The discovery of pre-historic decorated caves in western Europe transformed the way we think about the development of art. The earliest known evidence of human artistic endeavor, the awe-inspiring paintings, dramatic engravings and small, delicate sculptures of animals and humans found in these caves still hold a unique power and fascination, more than a century after they were first discovered. In this book, internationally renowned expert on prehistoric art Jean Clottes explores the origins of art and creativity. He takes the reader on a guided tour of 85 caves and rock shelters, many of which are not open to the public, revealing the extraordinary beauty of the works of art within them. Cave Art features more than 300 works from the Paleolithic period, made between 35,000 and 11,000 years ago, presented in geographical and chronological order.This comprehensive, accessible introduction to prehistoric art includes such spectacular works as the famous horses of Lascaux, the buffalo in the Altamira cave in Spain and the ivory carving of a woman's face found at Brassempouy in the south of France, as well as examples from less well-known sites. A wonderful range of animals is presented, from cave bears to reindeer, as well as mysterious abstract signs and schematic representations of human beings. Examples of portable art and sculpture are also included. While most of the caves described in the book are European, Cave Art also includes examples of open-air rock art made after the last ice age at sites around the world. With an unparalleled selection of images, Cave Art offers a unique guided tour of the earliest expressions of human creativity. Each work in Cave Art is illustrated by a color photograph, and accompanied by a clear, vivid explanatory text. A concise introduction tells the story of the discovery of the caves, and gives a clear outline of current knowledge, research and debate on the subject of prehistoric art. The book also includes a chronology, maps of the main caves and sites, a glossary and a list of sites that can be visited., This book reveals some of the world's oldest and most remarkable works of art, the discovery of which transformed the way we think about the development of human artistic endeavour and creativity. A guided tour of European prehistoric caves by world-renowned expert Jean Clottes, Cave Art brings together an unparalleled selection of spectacular and beautiful images of wall paintings, mysterious rock engravings and refined sculptures, all accompanied by accessible, informative text.

    I am thrilled with the 35th Anniversary 1959 Reproduction Barbie doll! She is absolutely delightful! The doll is so lovely, and her outfit is exquisite. Her dress and coat are fantastic, and I love her jewelry. Her face and hair are so lovely. The doll, in her box, was bagged in a bubble wrap bag, and was further protected by more bubble wrap packing, inside a sturdy box. She is just as described. The price and shipping were marvelous. Thank you so much for such excellent service!

    Item is sealed as described and the box suffered mild to average squishing, but to me this still qualifies as new. Seller wanted to take some precautions and offered this for a very low price compared to other similar offers. Accurate description of the facts! Recommended seller!
