Cave artists took advantage of the rough stone surfaces of the cave. In some caves, such as the Chauvet Cave in France, artists used the bumps in the stone to emphasize parts of the animal. In the Chauvet Cave, an artist painted a bear’s paw over a knob or bulge in the stone, which makes the paw stand out and look fiercer. Reflect on the elements of art.
