Survey of the Niche of the Little Bear

Relevé de la niche au petit Ours

The representation of three animals, accompanied by a dot and red lines, shows the perfect use of the wall's natural relief. There is what seems to be a female megaloceros and her calf, evoked by just a few lines. The little red bear is a perfect example of the mastery of the characteristic trait of representations in the Chauvet Cave.
