Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair - Frida Kahlo
Dublin Core
Description
Kahlo sits in a yellow chair, in a black, oversized suit, holding scissors and surrounded by chopped locks of her own hair. She wears dainty earrings and tiny shoes, dwarfed by the men's suit on her body. On the top of the painting is a few measures of a Mexican song, which translates to: "See, if I loved you, it was for your hair, now you're bald, I don't love you any more." (from the Frida Kahlo website, https://www.fridakahlo.org/self-portrait-with-cropped-hair.jsp)
