"The Vézère valley contains 147 prehistoric sites dating from the
Palaeolithic and 25 decorated caves. It is particularly interesting from
an ethnological and anthropological, as well as an aesthetic point of
view because of its cave paintings, especially those of the Lascaux
Cave, whose discovery in 1940 was of great importance for the history of
prehistoric art. The hunting scenes show some 100 animal figures, which
are remarkable for their detail, rich colours and lifelike quality." -http://whc.unesco.org
Another great card from Jean Pierre who always think of sharing new sites
for my collection!
Million thanks, Jean Pierre! Enjoy your travels!
