Self Portrait With Monkey - Frida Kahlo Painting - Canvas Prints
100 Rs
Frida Kahlo de Rivera was a Mexican painter, who mostly painted self-portraits. Inspired by Mexican popular culture, she employed a naïve folk art style to explore questions of identity, postcolonialism, gender, class, and race in Mexican society.
Kahlo's paintings often had strong autobiographical elements and mixed realism with fantasy. In addition to belonging to the post-revolutionary Mexicanidad movement, which sought to define a Mexican identity, Kahlo has been described as a Surrealist or magical realist. Her work has been celebrated internationally as emblematic of Mexican national and indigenous traditions, and by feminists for what is seen as its uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form.

About Self Portrait With Monkey Frida Kahlo Painting
Frida Kahlo’s soul-bearing self-portraits reflect both the artist’s interiority and the social mythologies that shaped her life in Mexico. Her canvases incorporated aspects of traditional portraiture and of murals; like the major Mexican muralists of her time—including her husband Diego Rivera—Kahlo celebrated indigenous culture throughout her compositions. The artist often rendered herself with a powerful gaze and incorporated parrots, monkeys, and, occasionally, leftist political imagery into her works. While Kahlo certainly made paintings that didn’t include her own likeness, this instantly recognizable, unflinching style has made her an icon of feminist empowerment.About the Canvas Prints
