Frida Kahlo: “Still Life Parrot” (1951) and “Fruits of the Earth” (1938-39)

Frida Kahlo painted some 40 still lifes, compared to the some 80 portraits for which she is known. Despite the difference in subject matter, her still lifes are as recognizable as her portraits. The still lifes display the same bright colors, which almost seem to shock they are so bright and unexpected.
