Cave painting at Lascaux: Megaloceros with line of dots. Estimated to be 17,300 years old.

Art is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artworks, expressing the author's imaginative or technical skill, intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power.
