Wood WR #2

The cave art that most grabbed my attention was the Man and Bird on the Panel of the Wounded Man.  This was interesting to me because it was the only depiction of a human that I had seen. Also, it was not as elaborate as the bull or many other animals painted in these murals. It is interesting to me that this early art had a very clear theme: wildlife. They followed this theme so closely to only include one one minimalist, conquered, dying member of their own race. Even the bird, who is guessed to represent a spirit to move the dead, it depicted in almost the same amount of detail, while being quite smaller.
