We have more (see my other comment), but mostly shaman-like figures or sculptures.
A different problem: We only found paintings in these caves because they were preserved by airtightness. The natural colourants are extremely volatile (which is why many caves were closed again).
Who can tell us whether people back then painted much more, but it has not been preserved? They could have drawn in sand, painted on plant material ... all gone!
