Frida Kahlo Self Portrait Wall Art
Painted in 1940, Frida Kahlo put so many symbolic creatures in this painting. A bird often symbolizes freedom and life. Especially a hummingbird which is colorful and always hovering above flowers. But in this painting, the hummingbird is black and lifeless. This might be a symbol of Frida herself. Frida spent most of her life in physical pain after the bus accident happened when she was eighteen. After that, she endured about thirty-five operations to fix her body. She spent so many years bedridden and cannot bear any children. This is a painting about her suffering.
Frida Kahlo (1907 - 1954) was a Mexican portraiture artist who employed a folk art style to explore questions of identity gender, class, and race in Mexican society.
