This image of prehistoric antelope was inspired by the cave art of Ice Age deer and other herbivores at Lascaux and Chauvet,  and influenced by the graceful antelope fresco (photo to right) from the Minoan culture, unearthed at Akrotiri, a bronze age city on Thera, an Aegean island. The creatures of  the Minoan fresco are recognizably antelope, but I love the artist’s exaggeration of the curves, making the image seem very modern.
