Frida Kahlo dies in Mexico City

70
years ago

13 July 1954,

Frida Kahlo dies in Mexico City. One of the best known Mexican painters highlighted in his works ideas such as class, race, gender and colonialism. It is known especially for its car portraits.

Both the illnesses he suffered throughout his life and the Mexican popular tradition influenced his work. The existence of the Mexican Revolution in his childhood influenced his conception of the world, entering as a young man in the Communist Party.
