Explanation:
The Frida on the left wears a Victorian styled laced wedding dress, the right wears the traditional dress of the Oaxaca women of Mexico. She Explains that the Freda on the right is the one her husband used to love( the got a divorce, this painting was done after). The one in the white wedding dress is the one he no longer loves (they do end up remarriages). Holding hands the loved and unloved Freda are distinct entities but united of the cultures of Europe in Mexico. Freda is also quoted speaking about the peace as “ Nothing but the representation of my loneliness. What I mean to say is, I resorted to myself; I sought my own help.” The dramatic stormy sky behind them gives a feeling of dread and uneasiness. Expose hearts have been said represent her divorce from her husband. This is all cited from the Art Assignments video I would watch I if you need a better understanding or just because it’s a great video.
