This tiny sculpture, just 11 cm high, was discovered in a village in Austria in 1908.

The Venus of Willendorf is a prime example of Upper Paleolithic art, a period marked by significant artistic evolution.

This sculpture's creator used oolithic limestone, not typically found in the region, and stained it with red ochre pigment.

The Venus of Willendorf is believed to represent a woman's reproductive aspects, with exaggerated breasts and vulva.
