Frida Kahlo is one of the most celebrated artists in modern art.
Known for her evocative self-portraits and scenes rooted in her Mexican heritage, Frida’s work was inspired by “whatever passes through [her] head without any other consideration.” The deeply personal paintings are full of symbolism and motifs that lend themselves to contemplation and interpretation from the viewer. But their multifaceted meanings, along with her use of color, have made them an enduring part of the art history canon.
Learn the stories and symbolism behind five of Frida’s most well-known paintings.
In addition to her beguiling artworks, Frida’s sense of style has made her an icon. You’ll see her—pictured in colorful dresses and floral headpieces—as frequently as you will her paintings.

Sip some of Frida’s symbolism when you drink from this mug by Unemployed Philosophers Guild.
The colorful cup features her portrait as well as elements from her life and the subjects from her paintings. Nestled among the imagery is a quote from Kahlo that appears in both English (I never painted my dreams, I only painted my own reality) and Spanish (Nunca pinté mis sueños, sólo pinté mi propia realidad).
Frida faced much adversity in her life, from a nearly fatal accident she survived as a teenager to a traumatic divorce from fellow artist Diego Rivera.
Despite these challenges, she found art as a powerful way to express herself. In doing this, she undoubtedly inspires others to use art a therapeutic means of sharing their inner world.
