It is an inverted self-portrait of the painter:

And proof positive that Vassily Vassilyevich used Mathcad to generate his art!

Your square has too many artifacts (white dots).
My (your photo + Mathcad = Malevich black square) is better!

Sorry Stuart, who is it Vasily Vasilyevich (Василий Васильевич)? Malevich was Kazimir!

A correct Ma(th)levich black square must be with a diagonal:
