Prehistoric art
1) Paleolithic art dates from 40,000-8,000 BCE and includes cave paintings and portable sculptures. Cave paintings from the Lascaux Caves in France dating to 15,000-13,000 BCE feature realistic images of animals painted using natural pigments.
2) Neolithic art emerged around 8,000 BCE as people transitioned to settled agricultural societies. Neolithic architecture included megaliths and structures like Stonehenge built from large stones without mortar.
3) Theories suggest Paleolithic cave art was used for hunting rituals, animal worship, or shamanism but the true purpose remains unclear.
(Arts) PreHistoric Art
Prehistoric art includes megaliths, stone figurines, and cave paintings from cultures without written languages. Several forms of prehistoric art are described, including Venus figurines depicting female forms from 24,000-22,000 BCE found across Europe. Megalithic structures like dolmens consisting of large upright stones supporting capstones and menhirs of single standing stones are discussed. Some of the earliest known cave paintings dating back over 17,000 years are highlighted from the Lascaux, Chauvet, and Altamira caves in France and Spain depicting animals like bison, deer, and horses.
ANCIENT GREEK ART PPT
Ancient Greek art and culture flourished for over a thousand years, beginning in the Mycenaean period and evolving through the Classical and Hellenistic eras. Notable developments include advancing from geometric to naturalistic styles of sculpture and the emergence of democracy and other systematic fields of thought in Classical Athens. Greek art and architecture emphasized ideals of beauty, balance, and proportion that strongly influenced Western civilization.

[2] Paleolithic cave art found in France and Spain from 30,000-10,000 BCE typically featured paintings of animals in red and black pigments on cave walls. [3] Neolithic art saw the development of cities like Catalhoyuk in Turkey with murals depicting organized hunting parties and monumental megalithic structures like Stonehenge in England built from around 2500 BCE.
History of frescos
The document discusses the fresco painting technique, providing details on its origins, history, and execution. It notes that fresco involves painting water-soluble pigments onto fresh lime plaster. Some of the earliest and most famous frescoes were created by Minoans on Crete in 1500 BC. Throughout history, frescoes have been an important form of decoration in places like ancient Egypt, Greece, India, medieval Europe, and 20th century Mexico. The durability of the technique has allowed frescoes to survive for centuries.
Greek art
This document discusses Greek art across three periods - Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic - from the 7th to 2nd centuries BC. It focuses on architecture, sculpture, and pottery. Greek art emphasized ideal proportions of the human body, copying from nature, and strict rules of proportion, beauty, and harmony. Architecture featured temples constructed in three orders - Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. Sculpture evolved from rigid Archaic styles to more realistic Classical works to expressive Hellenistic sculptures. Pottery provides insights into Greek culture and evolved through Proto-Geometric, Geometric, Black-Figure, and Red-Figure styles.

Paleolithic Art
Prehistoric Britain was home to hunter-gatherer societies from the earliest arrival of humans until the Roman conquest. Hunter-gatherers survived by hunting animals and gathering wild plants, and lived a nomadic lifestyle in search of food. Over time, they developed new skills such as herding animals and growing crops, as well as learning how to make tools and weapons from stone, bone, and metals. While prehistoric people left no written records, archaeologists study remains of homes, tools, and human skeletons to learn about how these early Britons lived between 15,000 to 2,000 years ago. Hunter-gatherers decorated caves with paintings of animals and made jewelry, carvings, and figurines as

Cave paintings
The document summarizes the discovery and exploration of the Lascaux cave paintings in France. In 1940, four teenagers discovered the cave when a fallen tree revealed an entrance. Over the following years, archaeologists explored the cave and found several galleries decorated with Paleolithic art dated to be over 17,000 years old. The paintings depicted various animal and human figures. However, in 1963 the cave had to be closed to visitors due to harmful mold growth caused by changes in air quality from tourism. A replica cave was opened to allow the public to experience the prehistoric art. The cave paintings provide insight into the culture and beliefs of the Paleolithic people who created them over 17,000 years ago.
Mesolithic age
The Mesolithic Age was a period of transition between the Old and New Stone Ages from 11,000-6,000 BCE. During this time, early humans began controlling fire, developing language, and moving from hunter-gatherer to more settled lifestyles. They began domesticating animals and plants, developing tools like bows and arrows and pottery, and forming early social structures and religious beliefs.

Prehistory of Wall Art
Prehistoric cave paintings were first discovered in the 19th century but the most famous were found in 1940 at the Lascaux caves in France. The paintings mostly depict human and animal figures, often hunting scenes, and were created using simple paints mixed with materials like blood and mud that were applied using bone tools. Later discoveries in the 20th century revealed more prehistoric cave art sites across Europe and uncovered different styles that developed over time, providing insight into the cultural beliefs and rituals of paleolithic humans. The 1990 discovery of the Chauvet caves in France contained some of the oldest and most impressive cave paintings ever found, dating as far back as 32,000 years ago.
