Description
Acrylic on paper. Featuring a self-portrait. Signed and attr. Frida Kahlo (Mexican, 1907-1954) on the upper right corner. 54.5 x 39 cm (21.5 x 15.3 in). Frida Kahlo typically uses the visual symbolism of physical pain in a long-standing attempt to better understand emotional suffering. Prior to Kahlo's efforts, the language of loss, death, and selfhood, had been relatively well investigated by some male artists (including Albrecht Durer, Francisco Goya, and Edvard Munch), but had not yet been significantly dissected by a woman. Indeed not only did Kahlo enter into an existing language, but she also expanded it and made it her own. PROVENANCE: Private American collection
