Description

Frida Kahlo at Home explores the influence of Mexican culture and tradition, the Blue House and other places Frida travelled to and called home, on her life and work.


Fully illustrated, the book features Frida's paintings together with archive images and family photographs, objects and artefacts she collected and photographs of the surrounding landscape to provide an insight into how these people and places shaped this much-loved artist and how the homes and landscapes of her life relate to her work.

Reviews

"Kahlo's family home is now a museum of her work and life. If you can't make the journey, this will give you some insights into the woman as well as the artist." i (The Independent)
