Frida Kahlo is a Mexican women artist who has become a symbol of surrealism of the twenties century for many people. The first I would like to tell of is the picture by Jackson Pollock named The Guardian of the Secret, 1943. The mouth of the lady is depicted by a line that is somehow excessively curved.
Frida Kahlo ’s painting “Diego y Yo” sold for $34.9 million on Tuesday, breaking records to become the most expensive piece by a Latin American artist to be sold at auction. The painting, from 1949, was the last “bust” self-portrait the legendary Mexican artist made before she died in 1954 at age 47, according to Sotheby’s.

Its sale more than triples the EN-FRIDA-IMMERSIVE EMBARGOED UNTIL 6 A.M. NOV 30: The exhibit "Frida: Immersive Dream" will feature the paintings of famous Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird, was painted by Frida Kahlo in 1940. Although this painting has a small size (about 16x24), it draws lots of interest, since it contains so many aspects which are symbolic to Frida Kahlo. In this portrait, Frida Kahlo faces the viewer with a background of large green leaves and a yellow leaf NJsoNkj.
