Brown, WR #2

The upside-down horse represents the fallen and confused life of an individual nearly 18,000 years ago. The brown body of the horse most likely was colored in such a manner in response to the available resources of the time. The black mane and hooves are black and were likely created by charcoal or a burnt substance that was combined in a watery medium and then applied to the wall. It is remarkable how the work of art has survived all of these years without showing apparent signs of erosion. I wonder what the purpose of these drawings were; to articulate the life of an individual or to represent a bigger picture? These images nonetheless give us a small glimpse into the life of those we have no historical evidence to know their lifestyles.
