PATRONATO DE LAS CUEVAS DE ALTAMIRA
SANTANDER (Espana)

Darling- this was worth the whole trip. The ceiling of the cave was rubbed down & prepared for the paintings, & the contour of the ceiling matches the forms of the animals-- e.g., big bump on the ceiling where bison's rump is. It all looks like one huge painting on unsigned canvas; in fact it all reminded me alot of my pictures. 

Other caves, nearby, have drippings that look like Giacomettis. Am now eating at Parador de Gil Blas with French couple I met on bus (no anglais). Leave tonight for Madrid. Exhibitione de pinture abstract in Santander. Love love love Helen. 

Num. 6. - Bisonte parado.
(Cueva de Altamira-Santillana)
