Whistler's Mother, otherwise known as the Arrangement in Grey and Black: The Artist's Mother, was an oil painting of James McNeill Whistler. It was painted in 1871.
What we often call "Whistler's Mother" was actually called "Study in Gray and Black." It is only incidentally a portrait of his mother, and was painted for no buyer. He probably painted it as a compositional answer to his fellow artists, who thought he had left the art of painting too far. In other words, he did it to prove his method was sound, his sensibilities intact. Many artists since have considered it to be one of the very first "abstract paintings."
Black figure pottery was the style of pottery in which figures were painted in silhouette. Red figure pottery became popular after black figure pottery. In red figure pottery red paint is used on a black background.

For instance, a water-colourist leaves the white of the paper untouched to represent white, and makes a semi-black by mixing other colours. Other artists consider that black and white are colours - the argument is a long standing one.

Basically artists painted on the vase then carved design's with a stylus.
Whistler's actual title for the painting was "A study in gray and black", which he subtitled "Mother", so I'm going to assume that's who it was. James MacNeil Whistler was an excellent artist, and his work should be better known than just that one painting.
