Venus of Willendorf
《维伦多尔夫的维纳斯》
Carving is a subtractive technique in which a sculptor uses a sharp instrument such as a knife, gouge, or chisel to remove material from a hard substance such as bone, wood, or stone.
After an image is shaped, it can be sanded, .led, or polished.
Perhaps the most famous Paleolithic sculpture is the so-called Venus of Willendorf, a striking .gure carved out of limestone and dated from 25,000 BC to 21,000 BC.
Although this .gure can be held in the palm of one’s hand, it is a monumental object with a sense of organic form.
The rhythmic arrangement of oval shapes emphasizes the head, breasts, torso, and thighs.
The scale of these elements in relation to the whole is quite large, while the facial features, neck, and lower legs are virtually eliminated.
