Frida Kahlo 'The Girl with the Mask of Death' In the painting | EDGY ART

Frida Kahlo "The Girl with the Mask of Death"

In the painting we see a lonely girl standing in a barren landscape. She holds a yellow flower in her hand and wears a skull mask on her face.

Both of these props are characteristic of the Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, encouraging the viewer to reflect on themes related to death.

Finally, a mask of a beast lies at her feet, adding even more mystery.

1938
