Art Black Girl Wallpaper
Drawn rather than photographed — illustrated and painted portraits on a dark ground. Community-uploaded; sign in to share yours.
Illustration compresses differently from photography: flat fills and clean outlines produce coloured fringing along every edge, and on a portrait that shows up worst around the face and hair where the linework is finest. Source quality keeps it crisp. Files are 1080x1920 and up. Portraits framed lower in the image survive the lock-screen clock; centred faces end up half-covered. Long-press or right-click to save; free for personal use.
Common questions
Do black wallpapers actually save battery?
On OLED and AMOLED screens, yes. A true-black (#000000) pixel is switched off rather than dimmed, so it draws no power — and with an always-on display that runs all day the difference is measurable. On an LCD screen it saves nothing, because the backlight stays on either way. Not sure which you have? Our OLED test tool fills the screen with pure black: on an OLED it goes completely dark, on an LCD you can still see the backlight glowing grey.
How do I set one as my wallpaper?
Long-press on mobile or right-click on desktop to save the image, then set it from your gallery or system wallpaper settings.
