Since the death of the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo has passed more than six decades, but it seems that interest in her life and work only increases.
And it is not surprising - the share of a small fragile woman fell so many trials, unceasing fights with death, all-consuming love, passion and hatred, desperate friendship and betrayal, creative successes and falls!
The younger generation jokes that all pictures of the artist are selfies. But in fact, most of the paintings she painted are self-portraits. Only in fact, the work of Frida Kahlo is more like a personal diary in which she unhesitatingly turned the soul inside out, showed how unbearable her life is due to pains in her spine and amputated legs, how she suffers because she can not Become a mother, as afraid of another betrayal of his wife and how he anticipates his imminent demise.
But, as it turned out, not only the pictures of the artist were personal, bright, tragic and filled with passion - no less exciting and touching stories of life preserved on herself and her clothes!
It is known that after the death of Frida Kahlo, her husband the artist - Diego Rivera gathered the entire wardrobe and closed it in the bathroom in his house in Mexico City. Suffering from grief, he ordered not to touch the clothes and keep it closed 15 years after he died. But the artist's wardrobe remained in oblivion not 15, but 50 long years, being in the house-museum!
And today it's time to solve another mystery and find out what actually life was of Frida Kahlo, her way of life, tastes and personal style.
