Stone is man's oldest resource. Whether that pertains to weaponry, creating fire, tools or presenting the prettiest pebbles as offerings to kin, it is the foundation of our civilization. And with civilization comes art, an area in which rocks are also crucial whether as tools or as canvases. 

To honor its importance, Artsper has curated a selection of artworks which feature the material, in both literal and figurative senses. This curated collection encompasses stone sculptures, photography, paintings - discover them all here.
