2 Buffalo Lascaux Cave SE France Cropped
This is an amazing cave wall painting in Lascaux Cave. It shows 2 bison or buffalo trotting around. It shows depth with the one behind the other and the closer one is larger. It shows movement by the position of their legs and movement shows the passage of time.... the 4th dimension!! A demonstration of the 4th dimension on a cave wall 10,000 to 30,000 year ago!! Amazing!! Very beautiful, sophisticated, and impressive given their level of technology, training, and equipment available to them. Also the location in a cave that is not muddy or eroded much was the best location to preserve this beautiful art, as if in a time capsule.
