The book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in modern art, Mexican art, or the history of women in art. It features over 50 of her extraordinary self portraits, alongside hundreds of photographs by celebrated artists such as Nickolas Muray and Manuel and Lola Álvarez Bravo. These images offer a rare glimpse into Frida's personal life and the world she inhabited, from her intimate relationship with fellow artist Diego Rivera to her beloved home, the Casa Azul. 💙

One of the most fascinating aspects of this book is its intimate approach. It includes a selection of drawings and pages from her personal diary, giving you a direct line to her innermost thoughts and emotions. You'll discover how a tragic accident in her youth fuelled her passion for painting and how her work earned her the admiration of contemporaries like Pablo Picasso and Marcel Duchamp. Did you know the surrealist poet André Breton considered her a surrealist, even though Frida herself said she never painted dreams, but her own reality? 🤔
