Presentación del libro

In the latest biography in the innovative 10 Days series, author David Colbert takes you through the ten most important days in the life of Frida Kahlo, the Mexican painter. Her colorful canvases introduced the American and European art world to the cultures of her native country. Kahlo survived a serious bus accident and began painting to pass the time during her difficult recovery. Drawing on personal experiences, Kahlo used bright colors and vivid symbolism to reflect classic religious Mexican tradition and indigenous Mexican culture—along with images that reflected her often turbulent life.
