La Casa Azul, now one of the most visited museums in Mexico City, was the artist's birthplace and the home where she grew up, lived with her husband Diego Rivera for a number of years, and also where she died. She spent long periods of time in the house convalescing, first in 1918 when she contracted polio and again, at the age of 18, after the trolley accident which left her badly injured. Confined to her bed and in constant pain and discomfort, she began to paint as a way to occupy her time. After marrying Rivera, Frida moved out of the Blue House, living in Mexico and abroad, moving for a brief time to the United States, until eventually returning to her childhood home. Fully illustrated, the book features Frida's paintings together with archive images and family photographs, objects and artefacts she collected, and photographs of the surrounding landscape to provide an insight into how these places shaped this much-loved artist and how the homes and landscapes of her life relate to her work. 600 10 $a Kahlo, Frida. 650 0 $a Painters $z Mexico $v Biography. 651 4 $a Mexico. 600 17 $a Kahlo, Frida. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00088364 650 7 $a Painters. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01050530 651 7 $a Mexico. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211700 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 4 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20190516010134.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006105949.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20170726010623.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20170603012202.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1D5C1FA0482211E79202AAAADAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
