The oldest pictures we have

Before writing, before cities, people ground ochre and charcoal and put animals on cave walls. What survives is astonishingly confident: a few lines and a herd is moving. These pieces reach for that — flat earth pigments, rock texture, and figures that read instantly at a distance.

Every piece in this collection is generated by AI in the style of a historical movement, then animated. They are original homages — not scans, photographs or reproductions of existing artworks.
