This is legitimately a great piece of art. It uses the least possible amount of linework while still giving a super accurate representation of a bear, including implied perspective (on the head). Also consider that there was absolutely no way for a person at that time to get a good view of a bear without being close as hell to them, I'm very impressed.

Compare that to this rendition from the middle ages. Did Europeans just forget how to draw somehow?

Its also cool how they picked the crappiest, non-flat spot to draw some poo poo on, like youd miss it just passing through. Its almost like someone specifically wanted to show off line art relief mapping as a measure of authenticity, since its not a commercially available photo manipulation technique. I.E. if you cant fake it, it cant be faked, etc. Extra-embellished rock variations. Yet no artist in their right mind would choose to draw there or bother to make the perspective correct if their repertoire only included flat line drawings. Im guessing someone raytraced some rocks and scanned some poo poo out of the kindergarten trash bin.

Sort of? The emphasis was more about the symbolism of the given object than the supposed correctness of it. In something like that piece which likely comes from a manuscript of some sort it was likely drawn and painted by a monk/scribe. It's unlikely they saw bears with any frequency at that point, so largely had to go from memory. Medieval zoos/menageries were pretty uncommon, not to mention probably seen as very secular and the purviewof the rich. A place where monks generally didn't go. It's likely that if they had seen a bear it would've been in their peasant-ish youth. So, from a composition perspective it's still very good and you can infer what it is. Try drawing or painting something you haven't seen since your childhood off memory alone.

drat that's really good for being so old, wikipedia has some other cool paintings from the same cave    on first impact it's really surprising to see how stylish these are, but if I stop to think about it I know that the world is full of naturally talented observers/drawers that manage to draw well even without any formal education and without refined tools like pencils or brushes I can only imagine how many other pieces of art have been produced in the early history of mankind that must have been lost to time just because they weren't in a good sheltered cave

Why would any artist with the skills to draw in perspective make a line drawing that only looks correct from a specific vantage, and if it was an act of preservation who is going to have a reasonable comparison not knowing what animal its supposed to look like in the first place?

It's wrong to assume all artists are trying to draw a lifelike representation of a thing, you don't look at a Picasso painting and say 'lol he can't draw fuckin face! People don't look like that!'
