                      Italian Cow - Mary loved to visit with cows - 
                      she claimed that to greet a cow one should breathe into its 
                      nose so it can smell your breath.   This painting was done 
                      after living in Florence for ten months, where she met many 
                      Italian cows.  Facing away from the viewer, this cow seems 
                      somehow remote and introspective in her pregnancy.
