"Lascaux cave paintings"- watercolorLascaux is the setting of a complex of caves in southwestern France famous for its Paleolithic cave paintings. The original caves are located near the village of Montignac, in the department of Dordogne. They contain some of the best-known Upper Paleolithic art. These paintings are estimated to be 17,300 years old.
The cave contains nearly 2,000 figures, which can be grouped into three main categories — animals, human figures and abstract signs.
