Almost all of the art recovered for this era is from the Magdalenian cultures which is why you would see its influence on the artifacts. Several important pieces of art recovered from this era provides an insight to the lives of humans of that time. All of these pieces were from the Europe region.[1][2] A few of the major and popular pieces that were recovered are:
