Spina Bifida Series-Disabled Legend Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo was born on 6 July, 1907 and died on 13 July 1954. Frida was a Mexican painter, who has achieved great international popularity. She painted using vibrant colors in a style that was influenced by indigenous cultures of Mexico as well as European influences that include Realism, Symbolism, and Surrealism.
