About the Item

Frida Kahlo - The Breton Portrait by Nickolas Muray is a portrait of the Mexican painter commissioned by Andre Breton. 14.63 x 11.63 in. Carbon Pigment Print Edition of 30 Signed by Nickolas Muray's Estate Nickolas Muray Photo Archives Nickolas Muray (1892–1965) was a Hungarian born artist that worked in New York as a photographer, specializing in portraits of celebrities. His work was often seen in Vanity Fair magazine. Nick’s friendship with the Mexican artist, Miguel Covarrubias, lead to the introduction to Frida Kahlo when Nick visited Mexico. Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo were introduced by Covarubbias and it was in 1931 when Nickolas and Frida’s love affair started. Later, when Frida had a solo exhibition at the renowned Julian Levy gallery in New York, she continued their affair. Most of the portraits that will be exhibited were taken in Nick’s studio during that New York visit.
