Translation examples
and then finally, at the cavern of Tuc d’ Audoubert, the visitor passes, first, through beautifully painted chambers and then, clambering through a very small entrance — -which the boys who discovered the cave called “the cat’s hole,” and going through which their father, the Count Begouen, got stuck and had to forfeit both his shirt and his trousers — one arrives in the sanctuary of the connubium of the two divine bison, Figure 28. Bison who are rendered not in paint but in bas relief, not in two dimensions but in three; so that here, once again, the possibilities of art were being exploited, in a way never known before, to communicate the sense of a heightening of the spiritual power sphere.
Y por último, en la caverna de Tuc d’Audoubert el visitante pasa a través de las cámaras hermosamente pintadas y después, trepando por una entrada muy pequeña —que los muchachos que descubrieron la caverna llamaron «el agujero del gato» y que al atravesarla su padre, el conde Bégouën, se quedó atrapado y tuvo que quitarse tanto la camisa como los pantalones— se llega al santuario del connubium de dos bisontes divinos, que están plasmados no en pintura sino en bajorrelieve, no en dos dimensiones sino en tres, de forma que aquí, una vez más, las posibilidades del arte estaban siendo explotadas, de una forma nunca conocida antes, para comunicar el sentido de elevación de la esfera del poder espiritual.
