This book is a dramatic and gripping story of the life and love of two outstanding artists of the 20th century: Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. Their first meeting—of a bold young girl with a mature master—in post-revolutionary Mexico in 1923, was destined to change Diego’s entire life and to turn Frida into a cult figure of 20th-century art. Frida’s astonishing fate, in which everything is extravagant and unpredictable, once again stirred the world when, ten years after the book’s release, the film “Frida” appeared—named among the best films of the year.
