Image legend:
Entrance to the cavern of Tuc d'Audoubert near Saint-Girons, France. A stream still issues from this cave, which is the most beautiful and in a way the most interesting of all the known Pyrenean haunts of the ancient artist who has left here not only miu-al engravings but also models in clay and even his footprints hard winters, and contrariwise, the shelter walls, having been exposed for thousands of years to the weathering elements, could not have preserved for us either paintings or delicate engravings that may have been made upon them.
