This oil on canvas is by Indian artist, Subodh Gupta (Born 1964). It's called 'Three Cows' and I fell in love with it when I was India last year. Unfortunately I didn't see the original, but I did see a print in the National Gallery of Modern Art, Mumbai. He takes everyday items, and gives them new life. By exploiting the cliches of India, he transforms them into curious works of art. Three Cows depicts three bicycles, loaded up with milk cans - a common site in urban areas, where milk is brought in from rural areas, by bicycle.
