 |

Self Portrait as a Tehuana (Diego on My Mind) Here Frida is dressed as a traditional Mexican bride with intricate lace and flowers on her crown. The painting is another testimony of her love for Diego. She wrote into her diary about this time ' Diego 'beginning' Diego'builder' Diego'my child' Diego'my sweetheart' Diego'painter' Diego'my lover' Diego'my husband' Diego'my friend' Diego'my mother' Diego'my father' Diego'my son' Diego'I' Diego'universe' Diversity in Unity. Why do I call him my Diego? He never was and he never will be mine. He belongs to himself.' |
