Portrait of a Girl
with a Ribbon
Around Her Waist

1929

Frida's husband, Diego Rivera, encouraged her to paint portraits of the native Mexican and Indian people. Although there are no known color photographs of this painting, it was probably painted using bright color combinations that were popular in Mexican art at the time. The subject in this painting is unknown. The whereabouts of this painting are unknown and it's very possible that this is another one of the paintings that Kahlo destroyed because she was not satisfied with the results.
