Adult Nonfiction - 750.92 Kahlo Kah

The intimate life of artist Frida Kahlo is wonderfully revealed in the illustrated journal she kept during her last 10 years. This passionate—and at times surprising—record contains the artist's thoughts, poems, and dreams; many reflecting her stormy relationship with her husband, artist Diego Rivera, along with 70 mesmerising watercolour illustrations. The text entries in brightly colored inks make the journal as captivating to look at as it is to read.
