Portrait Of Miriam Penansky - 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 Miriam Penansky
The subject in this early Kahlo portrait is Miriam Penansky, the sister-in-law of Salomon Hale. Hale, a leather importer, was a Polish-born Jew and a prominent member of the Jewish community in Mexico City. He was friends with Frida Kahlo and also an avid collector of modern Mexican Art. Kahlo signed it using the German spelling of her name, "Frieda", as she did in other paintings of this early period. About the Posters
