White cow on a black background 

This is a painting of a white cow against a black background by Georgian folk artist Niko Pirosmani. Pirosmani was born in 1862 and died in 1918, and his works are often characterized by their simple, but striking compositions. The cow in this piece, which is currently housed in the Art Museum of Georgia, is depicted in a realistic style, but with a distinctive naivety. The use of contrasting colors and the simplicity of the background emphasize the cow, creating a compelling image. The artist's works are considered to be naive art, a genre associated with self-taught artists whose work often features simple, childlike compositions and vibrant colors.
