A vibrant still life by Frida Kahlo, painted in 1951, featuring an array of fruit and a pre-Columbian dog sculpture. The painting includes a dedication to Samuel Fastlicht, adding a personal dimension to this intimate composition.
This still life by Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), painted in 1951, is more than a mere arrangement of fruit; it is a personal statement and a self-portrait of sorts. The painting features a collection of brightly coloured fruits, including oranges, lemons, watermelon, and melons, arranged around a pre-Columbian dog sculpture. A small Mexican flag and a banner with an inscription add layers of meaning to the composition. The inscription reads: 'Soy de Samuel Fastlicht. Me pinto con todo caritio, Frida Kahlo, en 1951. Coyoacán' (I belong to Samuel Fastlicht. I painted myself with all my affection, Frida Kahlo, in 1951, Coyoacán). This dedication suggests a close relationship with Fastlicht, who was her doctor and friend. The inclusion of the dog sculpture, a common motif in Kahlo's work, may represent companionship or loyalty. The fruits, rendered in a somewhat naive style, possess a tactile quality. The overall effect is one of intimacy and vulnerability, characteristic of Kahlo's intensely personal style. The painting provides insight into Kahlo's emotional world and her relationships with those closest to her.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
