About Frida Kahlo
Frida Kahlo was born in 1907, three years before the Revolution of Mexico. Her mother was a Spanish native while her father was German. She had suffered from polio throughout her life. Her father was her inspiration as he was a professional photographer.
In 1929, she got married to her lover Diego Rivera, and started wearing traditional Tehuana attire. The costume consisted of a loose blouse with lots of gold jewelry, a beautiful floral headdress and a long skirt, which had become her trademark.
Later, Frida's husband Diego indulged in extra-marital affairs, even with her sister. This was one of the most shocking phases of her life.
