Preferred term

Frida Kahlo  

Definition

  • Although she was born on July 6, 1907, in Coyoacán, the historic suburb of Mexico City, Frida Kahlo publicly declared her birth date 1910 so that she would be considered a true daughter of the Mexican Revolution. From 1926, when she painted her first self-portrait, to her death in 1954, Kahlo produced nearly 200 easel paintings, one third of which are self-portraits.
