Frida’s Embroidered Pillow

101
This embroidered pillow (c. 1940) rests on an intricately crocheted bedspread, featuring the name Frida surrounded by hand-stitched flowers and birds. It demonstrates Kahlo’s appreciation for folk art and Mexican craftsmanship. The vibrant stitching contrasts with the chronic pain she endured, transforming her bed into a space of beauty and resilience.
