Frida Kahlo. Masterworks

This volume is the ideal introduction to learn about the work of the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. It includes her 75 best paintings, both her more popular pieces and paintings from private collections that are seldom shown in public, which makes the content of this book novel, varied and captivating.

The texts accompanying this painstaking selection of images survey the life of Frida Kahlo since her birth and provide invaluable information on her charismatic personality, her relationships with contemporary personalities from all fields and her exceptional artistic vision, influenced by the two accidents that conditioned her life: the streetcar accident that left her crippled, and her encounter with Diego Rivera. The former caused her terrible body pain, while the latter led to profound emotional suffering.
