Portrait Of Cristina - My Sister (Retrato de Cristina Mi Hermana) - Posters
199 Rs
Frida Kahlo de Rivera was a Mexican painter, who mostly painted self-portraits. Inspired by Mexican popular culture, she employed a naïve folk art style to explore questions of identity, postcolonialism, gender, class, and race in Mexican society.
Kahlo's paintings often had strong autobiographical elements and mixed realism with fantasy. In addition to belonging to the post-revolutionary Mexicanidad movement, which sought to define a Mexican identity, Kahlo has been described as a Surrealist or magical realist. Her work has been celebrated internationally as emblematic of Mexican national and indigenous traditions, and by feminists for what is seen as its uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form.

About Portrait Of Cristina My Sister (Retrato de Cristina Mi Hermana)
This portrait depicted Frida's younger sister, Cristina. In this painting she still used the "Renaissance" style but already reflects the stylistic and thematic influence from Diego Rivera. In this painting, the background has a small tree with contrast to the large branches in the front to create a sense of space and depth. Frida used to use dark color as a result of influence of Renaissance style with her previous portraits. But this painting presents a sharp contrast. Frida also painted on part the frame to expand the portrait. About the Posters
