Through this long overdue biography, Kahlo has also, finally, been made fully human." — San Francisco Chronicle Hailed by readers and critics across the country, this engrossing biography of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo reveals a woman of extreme magnetism and originality, an artist whose sensual vibrancy came straight from her own experiences: her childhood near Mexico City during the Mexican Revolution; a devastating accident at age eighteen that left her crippled and unable to bear children; her tempestuous marriage to muralist Diego Rivera and intermittent love affairs with men as diverse as Isamu Noguchi and Leon Trotsky; her association with the Communist Party; her absorption in Mexican folklore and culture; and her dramatic love of spectacle. Here is the tumultuous life of an extraordinary twentieth-century woman -- with illustrations as rich and haunting as her legend. Review: Excellent biography - Excellent book. What a fascinating woman and what a fascinating life. The descriptions of her paintings brought them to life and the photos of her work and her life were very helpful. Review: Intimate Experience - I am an avid reader. Not so much of biographies but I have read a ton of books. I would put this book in my top 20 for sure. The authors style is engaging and keeps you wanting to read. She clearly knows the art world and all about Frida and Diego. There are some photographs and then also illustrations of some of Frida's works. Best biography I have read ever. ## Features - Great product! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #72,434 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #26 in Biographies of Artists, Architects & Photographers (Books) #66 in Historical Latin America Biographies #67 in Arts & Photography Criticism | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,244 Reviews | ## Images ![Frida: A Biography of Frida Kahlo ― The Classic, Engrossing Life of the Iconic Painter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ykh7HU-dL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent biography *by S***E on May 17, 2026* Excellent book.

Best biography I have read ever. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What I wanted is what I got :) *by M***3 on October 6, 2023* I have been getting more into knowing Frida Kahlo’s life after years of only knowing her paintings and some snippets of her life. This is really a beautiful and raw written book regarding her as a person and then as an artist while giving you the context of what was happening historically wise during the time of her life. I highly recommend it if you are curious/a fan of Frida’s work. The book came in very good condition although used! I bought from the seller “LUXURYMERCHANDISE (Veteran Owned)” and besides two little tearing on the cover (barely noticeable) the book itself is in amazing condition!! In the picture you’ll see I have it wrapped in a book cover for extra protection (I bought the protection separately!)! The shipping was smooth and fast! ## Frequently Bought Together - Frida: A Biography of Frida Kahlo [Paperback] Herrera, Hayden - Diary of Frida Kahlo: An Intimate Self-Portrait --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8243546-frida-a-biography-of-frida-kahlo-the-classic-engrossing-life](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/8243546-frida-a-biography-of-frida-kahlo-the-classic-engrossing-life) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-09-26*
