VALCAMONICA AND VALTELLINA ROCK ART
Some images and tracings
All B/W images are manual tracings obtained by transparency on direct contact to engraved surface.
Each plastic sheet take many hours to be completed, reproducing each engraved dot recognized on rock surface.
This archaeological work (with also recording and photographic documentation) has been done in last years by Footsteps of Man in main rock art sites under authority of Archaeological Superintendences.
The archive of Footsteps of Man is at this moment composed by numerous reproductions of large engraved surfaces, with many thousands of figures.
