Description
English: Photo of a plaster cast of the Mammoth Ivory Female head from Dolni Vestonice Known as the Dolni Vestonice Venus XV. A plaster cast is whitened and shows a morphology better than an original. A sculpture with an height of 45 mm shows probably the first portrait of a woman head made of Mammoth's bone. Locality: Dolní Věstonice, Gravettian culture.[1]
