my birth frida kahlo

my birth frida kahloFrida Kahlo painted this work in 1932, when she had just suffered a miscarriage in Detroit. This period marked a turning point in her personal and artistic life. She was confronted with loss, bereavement and profound reflections on motherhood, filiation and identity. The painting, bold and provocative, is one of the most personal of her career. It blends the intimate and the sacred, transgressing the artistic and religious norms of its time. The scene

The artist uses a predominantly brown colour palette to accentuate the depth of the forest

animals and organic forms

The attention to detail

lost in contemplation

while majestic buildings loom in the background
