Niko Pirosmani
Nikoloz Pirosmanashvili or Niko Pirosmani, simply referred to as Nikala, was a Georgian painter who posthumously rose to prominence. Relatively poor for most of his life, he worked a variety of ordinary jobs. His rustic, everyday scenes are celebrated today for their depiction of the Georgia of Pirosmani's lifetime, and he has become one of the country's most beloved artistic figures.
