About this artwork
The cave is a typical hunting scene expressed as rock art.
I was inspired by the Altamira cave in Cantabria and the Lascaux caves in Dordogne in France.
For The Cave, I used oil, worked with a spatula and natural ochre, red and dark earth pigments, just as our ancestors did 14,000 years ago.

Gustavo de León, born in Montevideo on October 23, 1956, is a Uruguayan painter.
I practiced different disciplines of painting and sculpture in my watercolorist mother's workshop throughout my teenage years.
In 1974, she moved to Buenos Aires, Argentina, to work in a family business. In 2002, her work in the hotel industry took her to Machu Picchu, Cusco, Peru, alternating with trips to the Amazon rainforest and Lima. She returned to Buenos Aires in 2019, where she studied Fine Arts and began a sustained production of oil paintings on canvas, exploring different styles and materials. Between 2023 and 2025, she participated in several group exhibitions in Buenos Aires, Paris, Amsterdam, and Punta del Este, Uruguay.
