Come Face To Face With One Of The Art World’s Most Interesting Women

“I joyfully await the exit—and I hope never to return!”
—Last diary entry of Frida Kahlo

There have been many tortured artists, but few have suffered the physical and emotional pain endured by famed Mexican painter Frida Kahlo (1907–1964). She survived a severe bus accident when she was 18 that punctured her abdomen and uterus and left her with a broken spinal column, collar bone, ribs, pelvis, and 11 leg fractures. The pain inflicted by the crash never left her and over the course of the next 29 years, Frida underwent 32 operations; was required to wear a corset every day, and had her leg amputated. She also married fellow Mexican painter Diego Rivera, endured a life-threatening miscarriage, had at least three abortions, and was humiliated by her husband after he had an affair with her sister. Through it all she achieved worldwide fame for her uncompromising and brilliantly colored self-portraits that dealt with such themes as identity, the human body, and death.

An Innovative Coin For A Ground-Breaking Artist

This extraordinary coin pays tribute to the amazing life of Frida Kahlo in a way that is as innovative as Frida herself. It’s the latest release in the award-winning Great Micromosaic Passion series from the renowned Powercoin Mint, located in Rome, Italy. Struck in three ounces of highly pure 99.99% silver, this fascinating coin, uses the graphic elaboration of an image of Frida Kahlo by André Sanchez and reinterprets it with Powercoin’s advanced minting techniques combined with extraordinary Ultra-High Relief (UHR) detail courtesy of Coin Invest Trust’s (CIT) Smartminting® technology. ­The brilliantly colorized coin is entirely covered by the mosaic pattern outlining geometric and symmetrical floral motifs that reach all the way to the coin’s edge! In addition, the coin also comes in gorgeous Proof condition, meaning it was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields!

Celebrating The Life Of A Colorful Feminist Icon

Celebrated by feminists for her depiction of the female experience and form, Frida Kahlo frequently challenged traditional gender roles, often dressing in male clothing, and puffing on big Cuban cigars. She fearlessly disregarded traditional beauty norms by embracing her unibrow and mustache. In fact, in 2018 when Mattel unveiled 17 new Barbie dolls to celebrate International Women’s Day, the doll modeled after Kahlo was savaged by critics due to its slim waist and noticeably missing unibrow! By embracing her own identity and telling her own unique story, Kahlo became a feminist icon for women everywhere. While most remembered for her self-portraits, pain, passion, and bold, vibrant colors; she is also is highly respected in Mexico for her support of Mexican and Indigenous culture.
