Scientists say that this bone flute, found at Hohle Fels Cave in Germany, is at least 42,000 years old.
Flute’s Revised Age Dates the Sound of Music Earlier
By JOHN NOBLE WILFORD

“The Bauhaus Stairway” (1932)

Only one figure comes towards us, not so much walking as dancing on tiptoes. Perhaps there is still hope.
Schlemmer painted this in the year the Bauhaus was forced to abandon its beautiful modern building in Dessau. Another image, Yamawaki’s collage The End of the Dessau Bauhaus (1932), makes no bones about what this meant: it shows a jackbooted Nazi leading a moustached politician to stomp on the Bauhaus.
