Take a look at this unfinished Family Portrait c. 1950 by Frida Kahlo. Up on the top are all four of Frida’s grandparents. Below them are Frida’s parents, her mother, a Mexican mestiza (a woman of Spanish and indigenous American ancestry) and her father, a German immigrant. Then on the last tier is Frida in the center, her sisters Matilde and Adriana to the left, and her sister Christina to the right. Critics have speculated that the faceless people to the right of Christina are either her children, Isolda and Antonio, or Frida’s half-sisters from her father’s first marriage, Maria Luisa and Margarita. Lastly, there is the tiny fetus in the bottom center of the painting. This is either Frida’s brother, who only lived a few days after his birth, or a representation of the miscarriages and abortions that Frida had throughout her life. No wonder she never finished this piece, it’s an existential crisis waiting to happen. Follow us on Instagram to see more.
