EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Palaeolithic food gathering" takes us back in time to the Stone Age, offering a glimpse into the lives of our ancient ancestors. The artwork, created by Luis Montanya and Marta Montanya, portrays humans engaging in various activities related to food procurement in southern Europe. In this scene, we witness a family unit diligently scavenging and searching for sustenance amidst the bountiful flora and fauna of their environment. Men, women, and children are shown gathering fruits, cereal plants, and roots while also feasting on deceased animals. The intricate illustration beautifully captures the essence of hunter-gatherer life during this prehistoric era. The image showcases not only the biological needs of these individuals but also their deep connection with nature. It highlights their resourcefulness as they dig for roots or scavenge for wild grasses to sustain themselves. This snapshot from history sheds light on the early stages of human civilization when survival depended heavily on hunting and gathering skills. As we admire this remarkable artwork steeped in historical significance, it serves as a reminder of how far humanity has come since those primitive times. It invites us to appreciate our modern-day conveniences while acknowledging our shared ancestry with these resilient individuals who thrived against all odds thousands of years ago.
