17,000 years B.C., Cro-Magnon man started to sketch the first outlines of Art history when he painted the animals that surrounded him. He used a variety of pigments, colours, animal-haired paintbrushes, stencils, sponges and spit to apply the pigments he extracted from nature.

Chef Sébastien Bras puts together a (pre) historic meal, based on reindeer and honey. Because although Cro-Magnon man liked to paint aurochs, he actually ate reindeer, a meat that the Lapps are very fond of today. Sébastien Bras reproduces the ancient cooking methods.
