Communist Icons Above the Bed

264
This framed collage, found in Frida Kahlo’s bedroom, features portraits of key Marxist leaders: Lenin, Luxemburg, Engels, Marx, and Mao. More than political homage, it reflects Frida’s passionate embrace of leftist ideals. Displayed above her bed, these figures became guardians of her revolutionary identity in both art and life.
