Description: Violet horse
Depiction: Horse
Chronology: Style IV. Magdalenian. ca.16000-11500 BP
Techniques: Paint
Comment:
This large figure of a horse facing right is painted in violet. Its conservation is not ideal, as it is affected by calcite formations in the area of its neck and limbs. Its outline is quite diffuse. The horse is standing motionless, and it is depicted whole, with a high technical quality and correct proportions. Further realism is achieved by the lighter coloring of the ventral area, which was not painted, and the representation of all four limbs.
