内容説明
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.
目次
The book is arranged chronologically and geographically, by caves. The first three chapters correspond to three major periods of time, each taking a key cave as its focal point: 35,000 - 22,000 Years Ago (The Chauvet Cave), 22,000 - 17,000 Years Ago (The Lascaux Cave), and 17,000 - 11,000 Years Ago (The Niaux Cave). Within each chapter, the first section is devoted to the emblematic cave of that period, which often yielded spectacular finds, and is followed by a guided tour of other caves of the same period. In total 85 caves are covered. The final chapter features examples of similar prehistoric artistic expressions around the world, from Africa to Australia, made after the last ice age.
