Are there any cases of early human artwork that looked realistic?

Cave painting and ancient clay figurines all look so whacky. I know that our minds have evolved so much over thousands of years, but I was curious if there was early human artwork that looked real.

If this is the wrong sub, kindly direct me to the right place!
