Diego and I - Frida Kahlo

L'œuvre en bref

Painted in 1949, Diego and I is one of Frida Kahlo's most poignant self-portraits. Created shortly before the couple's last major separation, it expresses with intensity the pain, jealousy and obsessive attachment that Frida felt for Diego Rivera. The work reflects a period of deep emotional turmoil, when Diego was having an affair with a famous actress. In it, Frida condenses her malaise into a tight, symbolically charged composition.

She paints herself in close-up, her hair untied and tangled around her neck, like a stranglehold. Tears stream down her face, and her gaze is fixed and tense. On her forehead, at the centre of her thoughts, is Diego, with a third eye on his forehead - an allusion to his artistic clairvoyance or his mental power over her. The background is green and sober, to bring out the psychological tension in her face. This painting is a silent cry, condensing love, suffering and mental fusion in a frontal and direct image.
