As I have mentioned here many times, it's amazing that the very earliest Paleolithic cave art we know of is quite realistic and well-executed and sometimes it appears as though we skipped over the "stick figure" phase of drawing development. It's also interesting that the animals in cave paintings are generally portrayed much more realistically than are any humans that appear.

There is a book on the exhibit, to be available soon. And some cool replica objects...
I would be very cautious with this Wisent if I were you--it looks a lot like that "chocolate" triceratops a conniving friend gave me, of which I bit off its head, and found out it was NOT chocolate, but soap! I already told that story to you guys, haven't I?....L.B.
