Frida Kahlo’s biography is just as interesting as her paintings. Thousands of people are looking for info about Frida Kahlo the famous Mexican surrealist painter who is featured today on Google Spotlight. She was born on July 6, 1907, near Mexico City.

And where are the photos of this self-obsessed girl kittenishly celebrating her Soviet hero Stalin — who devised such wonders as the White Sea Canal and the pan-Soviet chains of recreational resorts known as the Gulag…? There are at least two photos in the MxCity museum of Frida oozing over an image of Uncle Joe. They would add to her fame. I do wonder why there aren’t postcards of these two testimonials to her political acumen…? She seemed also to be chums with Trotsky whom Uncle Joe caused to be assassinated.
It is an interesting video.She drawn interesting eyesbrows.:)
