ractical: Anon

I feel dumb. At first I thought this was one of those one word names, but then I realized Anon stood for anonymous. So, this is a look at some of the great anonymous works in history.

Venus of Willendorf, ca. 24,000-22,000 BC – I have never seen or heard about this. What an interesting look at the female form. People think it might be celebration of fertility.

Cave paintings, Lascaux, ca. 15,000-10,000 BC – A bunch of french kids an their dog (Robot) discovered this. Over the years there has been a lot of damage done by visitors, so it's closed to the public now.

Stonehenge, ca. 2950-1500 BC – I heard that this is now thought to be tombs.

Khufu's Pyramid, Giza, ca. 2590-2565 BC

Terra Cotta Army, Xian, ca. 221 BC – I had heard of this but I didn't realize it was actual Terra Cotta. Pretty impressive.

Venus de Milo, ca. 200 BC – This made me think of Greek and Gothic art. I know that many good things happened in Gothic art, but it's interesting to see that in 200 BC people were so good at the human form, and that this skill was lost and not rediscovered until the Renaissance.
