Cro-Magnon man and woman, artwork C017 / 7258
Cro-Magnon man and woman, artwork. They are wearing animal skins and necklaces, and are carrying tools and weapons. Cro-Magnons are a form of early modern humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) that inhabited Europe from around 35, 000 years ago. They were anatomically similar to modern humans, although slightly more robust and with a larger brain capacity. They used flint tools, and also made paintings, sculptures, carvings and music.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient Cro-Magnon man and woman, providing a glimpse into their lives during the Stone Age. Dressed in animal skins and adorned with necklaces, they carry tools and weapons that were essential for survival in their time. The Cro-Magnons, early modern humans who inhabited Europe approximately 35,000 years ago, closely resembled us anatomically but possessed a slightly more robust physique and larger brain capacity. In addition to their remarkable physical attributes, these resourceful individuals utilized flint tools while also expressing themselves through various forms of art. They created intricate paintings, sculptures, carvings, and even music. Against the backdrop of Earth itself depicted in this artwork's background, we are reminded of our shared origins as Homo sapiens sapiens. The black background highlights the male figure confidently walking alongside his female counterpart. This historical illustration serves as a window into humanity's past during the Pleistocene epoch of prehistory. It offers valuable insights into anthropology and paleontology by showcasing how our ancestors lived thousands of years ago. Presented as a duo cutout against a black backdrop by artist JOSE ANTONIO PEÑAS/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY from Science Photo Library (not affiliated with any company), this image invites us to appreciate our rich history while acknowledging the incredible journey that has led us to where we are today.
