The Venus of Lespugne was found in 1922 by Saint
Perrier in the cave of Les Rideaux. The sculpture is made out of mammoth
ivory and measures 5.75" high. The breasts are deteriorated but they have
been restored in this reproduction so that we can appreciate the original
look of the statue. The Venus of Lespugne represents the Earth and its
fertility and the continuation of life, the Mother Goddess, the universal
female principle in one of its earliest conceptions.
