Venus Figurine Appreciation Post
(for the unaware, these are female (in the sense of assigned sex, not gender) human figurines from the Upper Paleolithic period. They were made between 35,000 and 11,000 years ago all over Eurasia. This specific list of figurines has been curated based solely on my personal artistic preferences.)
The Venus of Holde Fels, the oldest Venus figurine ever found
Venus of Dolni Vestonice - my personal favorite
Venus of Willendorf, arguably the best known
The Venus of Laussel is actually a stone relief, not a figurine, but still cool
Venus of Lespugue
Venus of Moravany
One of several Venuses of Kostyonki
One of several Venuses of Gagarino
This concludes the Venus Figurine Appreciation Post.
#hylian rambles#venus figurines#prehistoric art#uncaptioned#artistic nudity#i am NOT community labeling art of human bodies but we'll see if the tumblr filter catches it anyways#human bodies shouldn't be censored in my opinion. they're just bodies. we all have them.#archaeology#if you're noticing a trend that all of these are fat it's not because all venus figurines are like that. although many if not most are.#it's because i thought the skinny ones were less artistically appealing#not that skinny people can't be artistically appealing. these particular figurines simply did not speak to me
