What began as a medical relationship evolved into a lasting and deep friendship, and it was as a token of gratitude to her “doctorcito” that Kahlo presented him with this portrait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepicting herself standing, with a direct and confident gaze, dressed in a purple huipil adorned with pre-Hispanic motifs, she thus affirms her attachment to her Mexican roots and indigenous symbolism. Behind her, a cloudy sky and a bare background suggest that while the storm of her physical suffering seems to have subsided, the wounds themselves remain present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Frida Kahlo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrida Kahlo’s life story is almost as popular as her art. Born in 1907, Frida Kahlo was a self-taught Mexican painter best known for starkly depicting her chronic physical and emotional pain through her art. Of her 143 paintings, 55 are self-portraits. Kahlo said, “I paint myself because I am so often alone and because I am the subject I know best.” Although she rejected the label, she is often identified as a Surrealist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frida Kahlo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46597392269382,"sku":"TIADMAGOPFRIDA","price":700.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1802\/5767\/files\/TIADMAGOPFRIDA_21e6ecf4-0d28-4018-8da4-efb59cd16b9b.jpg?v=1790022601","url":"https:\/\/www.todayisartday.com\/en-jp\/products\/magnetic-bottle-opener-self-portrait-dedicated-to-dr-eloesser-frida-kahlo","provider":"Today is Art Day","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
