Art, Prehistoric and Ancient
Prehistoric cave paintings; Egyptian pyramids and temples; classical Greek statues.
Art, Prehistoric and Ancient Rick Steves' Europe
As the Ice Age glaciers melted, European civilization was born—and with it, so was art. From the Stone Age came prehistoric art: mysterious tombs, mighty megaliths, and vivid cave paintings. Then the Egyptians and the Greeks laid the foundations of Western art—creating a world of magical gods, massive pyramids, sun-splashed temples, and ever-more-lifelike statues.
