Frida Kahlo

Images of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo are everywhere, or so it seems. Shopping bags in the Mercado are only one of the many objects that show her portrait (or try to duplicate it!). She is a much-loved twentieth century painter, and I believe that her reputation may now have surpassed that of her husband, Diego Riviera.
