      Frida Kahlo had suffered a miscarriage the previous month; she mourned Dieguito's death for years. Her mother would die two weeks later.https://twitter.com/DIADetroit/status/899638101085171712 …

      This is one of Kahlo's most famous paintings: La cama volando, Henry Ford Hospital. The snail represents the time-consuming miscarriage.pic.twitter.com/TlsNjRn0Kz

      Kahlo painted this after returning to Mexico following her mother's death. She could have painted an eclipse. In some ways, I guess she did.

      Can't stop thinking about this photo of Khalo during the eclipse. I've lots of critiques about her; it's based on studying her and her art.

      For me, part of what makes this painting (irl) so powerful is that it's not much bigger than a shoebox but packs so many punches.

      The bed in this painting is GIGANTIC. It really sticks out in a small painting. It looks like it's about to swallow her.

          And compare her to the size of the baby she lost, Dieguito. Look at the way he towers over her. It's haunting.... because it haunted her.

          Days after her miscarriage, Kahlo demanded Dieguito be brought back to her. She wanted to paint him. The hospital, of course, refused.

          I can't say I love this painting. It's impossible to love something this agonizing.

          But I've gone out of my way to read about it, to talk to others about it, see it in person. Then, out of nowhere, I see the eclipse photo.

          This gives us a small glimpse of Kahlo just weeks after the miscarriage. She dressed up. She's outside. She's... very much alive.

          This photo puts a lot pieces together for me (including some things I won't even tweet about atm). I'm so happy I saw it today.
