Frida Kahlo had no religious affiliation.
FILE - An art handler adjusts Frida Kahlo’s “Diego and I” on display at Sotheby’s auction house during a press preview for the Modern Evening auction, Nov. 5, 2021, in New York. The 70th anniversary of Kahlo’s death is on July 13, 2024. FILE - The house where Frida Kahlo once lived, called the Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo House and Studio Museum, is linked with a walkway bridge to a white and pink house-studio once occupied by her husband Diego Rivera , in Mexico City , Oct. 31, 2017.
According to some interpretations, the painting represents the pain that Rivera inflicted on her. Jordán, though, offers another reading. Still, Melo said, she experienced years of physical pain. And in the midst of that suffering, while fearing that resilience might slip away, she said to herself: “If Frida could handle this, so can I.”
“Other artists have inspired me, but Frida has been the most special because of everything she endured,” Amni said. “Despite her suffering, the heartbreak, the accident, she was always firm.” Kahlo, on the other hand, was not shy in portraying her physical disabilities, her bisexuality and the diversity of beliefs that weigh on the human spirit.
A decade after her accident, probably overwhelmed by the fact that she survived, Kahlo started collecting votive offerings — tiny paintings that Catholics offer as gratitude for miracles. In her Blue House, the 473 votive offerings are still preserved.
