Description
Rhinoceros Panel in Chauvet cave, France. Negative. Digital oil painting.
Detail of the spectacular Rhinoceros herd in the Great panel of the End Chamber of Chauvet cave, France. Rhinoceros are not usual in Cave Art. Until Chauvet cave was discovered in 1994, only some twenty figures had been found. Then came Chauvet... and added another 60.
This panel holds at least 9 of them, and the composition takes the symmetric shape of a shield. The shape of the big bull at the top is repeated several times which has been interpreted as movement by some and as a formation of rhinos by others.
Those paintings are over 30,000 years old and their find ended with the idea that cave painting had evolved from basic drawings to its peak in the Magdalenian era, some 15,000 years ago,as seen in Altamira, Lascaux, Niaux or Ekain.
The paintings in Chauvet are for the most part monochrome and feature many different and unusual animals, like lions, hyenas, panthers, bears, and some more usual like horses, aurochs, rhinoceros or mammoth, all of them of extraordinary artistry.
