Pigcasso (April 2016 – March 2024) was a 700-kilogram (1,500 lb) pig from South Africa whose paintings have sold for millions of rand all over the world.

Pigcasso is best known for being the first non-human artist to be given her own art exhibition, and for holding the record for most expensive artwork by an animal ever sold.

[4] Lefson is a former professional golfer who briefly dated John Denver[5][6] and travelled the world with Oscar, a dog she adopted and married,[dubious – discuss] but later accidentally ran over, which it did not survive.

[29][30] By the time of her death, Lefson had sold over $1 million worth of Pigcasso's paintings, with proceeds going towards the upkeep of the sanctuary where she lived.

[34][35][36][17] She was also featured in the 60th anniversary advertisement of the Nissan Skyline (2017),[37][38] and in 2020, a "Pigcasso" range of wine, produced from the grapes that grow at the farm sanctuary where she lived, was launched.

Her exploits were covered on Saturday Night Live,[42] ABC,[43] NBC,[44] CBS,[17] CNN,[45] National Geographic,[8] Sky News,[28] and the BBC.

[49][50] Goodall flew out to the sanctuary after hearing about the pig's condition, but arrived one day too late, with Pigcasso passing away before the two had a chance to formally meet.
