About This Item
New York: Henry N. Abrams, Inc, 1986. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. The paintings in the cave of Lascaux were discovered in 1940. Immediately overwhelmed by tourists, the caves were sealed in 1963 to prevent further deterioration. From 1981-3, Mario Ruspoli and his team were allowed into the caves to film and photograph their wonders before they were resealed. Ruspoli's book (published posthumously) offers not only the "Final Photographs" of the paintings, but a meticulously researched account of what was then known of the culture that produced them. Minor scuffs and shelf-wear to the jacket. Slight toning to the edges of the pages. Fraying to the end of the page-marker ribbon. 208 pages. 12.75 x 10.25". As a large, heavy book, this order may incur additional shipping charges.
