This is the unique original Gouache painting by Bernard Long.

The extinct ancient human Homo erectus is a species of firsts. It was the first of our relatives to have human-like body proportions, with shorter arms and longer legs relative to its torso.

It was also the first known hominin to migrate out of Africa, and possibly the first to cook food. Here we see a man hunting with a tempered spear, strengthened to a point in fire.

Used as the cover of the book Prehistoric Man by Bernard Long and Rupert Oliver.
