This is a delightful little biography; part illustration, part hand written assessment of Frida Kahlo’s life, all of which adds up to a very endearing and charming insight into one of our favourite women in art. The book’s illustrations are by London and Hastings based artist Nina Cosford, and the words are by Zena Alkayat, both women have also done books on Coco Chanel, Virginia Woolf and Jane Austin, should you like their style.
Easy to read – I consumed it in one sitting- it would make a great present for Frida fans, and we know there are loads of them….
