There are some things that are hard to put in words, like a painting that you want to find out the artist of. For searches like that, try Google Goggles ;just open the Goggles app on your phone, snap a photo of that painting, and find search results all about it.

   
Google Goggles is a downloadable image recognition application created by Google which can currently be found on the Mobile Apps page of Google Mobile. It is used for searches based on pictures taken by handheld devices. For example, taking a picture of a famous landmark would search for information about it, or taking a picture of a product's barcode will search for information on the product
