The Therianthropic statuette (Löwenmensch)
from the Hohlenstein-Stadel cave, Ca. 30,000-26,000 BCE.
31 centimetres tall.
Ccarved from mammoth ivory it stands as the oldest known example of figurative art.
Discovered in a cave in Germany, this enigmatic sculpture merges human and animal features in a way that challenges understanding—both hauntingly familiar and strikingly otherworldly.
It offers a profound glimpse into the creative genius of early humans, hinting at their capacity for imagination and symbolic thought.
Remarkably, the Lion-man predates the advent of known written language by more than 30,000 years. To put that in perspective, it is older than Stonehenge by tens of thousands of years.
This ancient artifact showcases an extraordinary leap in artistic expression, marking one of the earliest examples of humans conveying complex ideas long before written records existed.

Ancient Greek statuette (solid cast bronze) of a boxer. The man's hands are wrapped in leather thongs, which served as Greco-Roman antiquity's counterpart to modern boxing gloves, and he holds a sponge. Oil lamps would originally have been suspended from the base on which he stands. Artist unknown; 1st cent. BCE (late Hellenistic period). Now in the Walters Art Museum, Baltimore, MD, USA. Photo credit: Walters Art Museum.

NEW WOLFWOOD SCULPT REVEAL



The Vash sculpture was around 200 dollars at it's release so I expect this wolfwood to be similar in price. Maybe more considering the punisher will take a lot of plastic and his base is wider.

I printed and painted this 6” Onixia the Tempest dragon beauty by Artisan Guild as a commission. I was given some reference art to go from and went to town.

Then once done and delivered, I got to see her in her new home!

2 MINERVAs: 'Small Bronzes' - Two [votive] statuettes of fighting Minerva, both wear Aegis Etrusco-Umbrian, 'Maestro Fiesole' Workshop 450-400 BC. 'In the Umbro-Sabellian area the production of small bronze statues developed around the beginning of the 5th c. BC.' 'Divinities are often reproduced, among which the portrayal of Minerva on the attack, wearing a high-crested Attic helmet and a cuirass with a gorgoneion in the middle of the breast, an outstandingly valuable specimen from the 2nd-half of the 5th c. BC, attributed to a master working in northern Umbria.' [Txt ©ETRU]
