The Global Evolution of Painting
From the mysterious cave paintings of Lascaux to the vibrant street art of cities around the world, painting has been a critical form of expression throughout human history. 🌎
In ancient Egypt, paintings adorned the walls of tombs and temples — these depictions of gods, pharaohs, and cosmic journeys flourished under rulers who sought to immortalize their reigns. African art similarly boasts rich traditions, with tribal paintings that celebrate both daily life and spiritual beliefs. 🌅
