About the Item

Frida with Granizo by Nickolas Muray is a portrait of Frida Kahlo with her pet deer, Granizo. She places her hand lovingly on the deer while looking towards the viewer, with a cigarette in hand.

This photograph is titled, dated, artist name, numbered, copyright and signed by Nickolas Muray's Estate. This photograph is from the Nickolas Muray Photo Archives. "Muray and Kahlo were at the height of their on-again, off-again, ten-year relationship when these pictures were taken. Their affair had started in 1931, after Muray was divorced from his second wife, and shortly after Kahlo’s marriage to Mexican muralist Diego Rivera. It outlived Muray’s third marriage, and Kahlo’s divorce and remarriage to Rivera, by one year, ending in 1941. They remained good friends until her death in 1954." from Nickolas Muray Photo Archives Born in Szeged, Hungary, Nickolas Muray immigrated to New York City in 1913. He established himself as a much sought after portrait photographer and freelanced for magazines including Vanity Fair and Harper's Bazaar. In the 1930s his friends included Mexico's Renaissance artists: Miguel Covarrubias, Rufino Tamayo, Diego Rivera and of course, Frida Kahlo, with whom he exchanged love letters. Muray was also a renowned American fencer, who participated in two Olympic Championships. This handsome and talented artist photographed major personalities in the arts, literature and political worlds. These striking portraits displayed are some of the most beautiful images of this unique artist, Frida Kahlo.
