{"product_id":"self-portrait-with-loose-hair-frida-kahlo-1","title":"Self Portrait with Loose Hair - Frida Kahlo","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 1947 self-portrait by Frida Kahlo, featuring the artist with loose hair and a descriptive scroll, rendered in her signature precise style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted in 1947, this work captures Frida Kahlo at the age of forty. The composition features the artist in a frontal pose, her dark hair falling loose around her shoulders. She wears a traditional garment with a yellow embroidered panel, a recurring element in her wardrobe that reflects her connection to Mexican heritage. Behind her, a textured, stone-like wall provides a stark contrast to the softness of her features, while a hanging plant adds a touch of organic form to the background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the base of the painting, a scroll contains a handwritten inscription in Spanish. It identifies the artist, her age, the date of creation, and her birthplace in Coyoacán. This inclusion of text is a characteristic device in Kahlo's work, often used to anchor the image in a specific time and place. The painting demonstrates her precise brushwork and her ability to blend personal narrative with symbolic representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKahlo's self-portraits often function as a form of visual diary. In this instance, the direct gaze and the inclusion of the scroll suggest a deliberate act of self-documentation. The palette is warm, dominated by ochre, deep red, and the dark tones of her hair. The work avoids the complex, dream-like imagery found in some of her other pieces, opting instead for a grounded, almost documentary quality. It remains a clear example of her technical approach to portraiture, where the subject is presented with both vulnerability and authority. The painting is currently held in a private collection, representing a specific moment in the artist's later career when she was reflecting on her identity and her physical presence in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/the-return-of-the-flame-rene-magritte\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Return of the Flame - René Magritte — René Magritte\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/sv\/products\/a-night-at-saint-jean-man-ray\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eA Night at Saint Jean - Man Ray — Man Ray\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Frida Kahlo","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58837918089551,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58839365517647,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58839365550415,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58839365583183,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58839365615951,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Self-Portrait-with-Loose-Hair_Poster_CompositorV1_1789963932940.jpg?v=1789964552","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/sv\/products\/self-portrait-with-loose-hair-frida-kahlo-1","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
