Here
is a painting of Frida Kahlo with her husband, Diego Rivera. If you
look in Diego's right hand you will notice paintbrushes and a palette.
Diego was also a Mexican artist he was a muralist, meaning
he painted large paintings on walls of buildings. Their marriage in
1929 was called a "union between an elephant and a dove." Can you
guess why? Who do you think was the elephant? The dove? Hint: Diego
was very large and she was tiny.
Frida created this painting in 1931.
