There are few images as recognizable as Frida Kahlo’s likeness. This is no accident — the self portrait was the most recurrent genre Kahlo’s short but intense pictorial production and as a result Frida Kahlo and self-portraiture are nearly synonymous. This November, Sotheby’s is honored to offer Diego y yo, one of Kahlo’s finest self portraits and her last from the 1940s. In this video, discover how Diego y yo offers us an intimate glimpse into Kahlo’s world and reminds us why she stands as an icon of Modern art.
