Frida Kahlo de Rivera was a Mexican painter, born in Coyoacán, best known for her self-portraits.
Kahlo's life began and ended in Mexico City, in her home known as the Blue House. She gave her birth date as July 7, 1910, but her birth certificate shows July 6, 1907. Her work has been celebrated in Mexico as emblematic of national and indigenous tradition, and by feminists for its uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form.
And now a most unusual book is available - Frida Kahlo Paper Dolls.
Frida fans of all ages will delight in this fabulous paper doll set celebrating the artist and fashion icon. Included here are thirty of her signature ensembles, plus a bonus paper doll of husband Diego Rivera with two outfits of his own.
