The first thing that catches our eye in the work is that this painting is a double self-portrait, Frida shows two different personalities in the portrait, two Fridas are sitting side by side and holding hands in the double self-portrait, these two Fridas draw a very different image from each other. Actually, these Fridas show us two periods in her life. One of the Fridas wears a European-style white Victorian dress, while the other wears a traditional Mexican dress.Both Fridas are holding things in their laps. When we look carefully at the photograph in the hands of Mexican Frida, we see that it is a small portrait of her great love Diego Rivera.
The other Frida has a pair of scissors in her hand. The vein starting from Diego's painting is cut by Frida in a white dress. The blood dripping on Frida's dress symbolizes their separation, the surgeries she had and the children she had aborted.
Fridas sitting next to each other are connected to each other through veins. But their hearts are quite different. Mexican Frida is big and her whole heart is because she is the Frida that Diego loves. But Frida's heart in the white dress is smaller and full of cuts, this heart belongs to an abandoned Frida.
When we look at the background, we see that the buying sky is filled with very dark clouds. This stormy sky reflects Frida's inner turmoil.
Kahlo remarried Rivera a year after creating this piece, and although their second marriage was troubled at first, it lasted until her death.
