Seventeen Artists and Their Living Spaces, from Giverny to Casa Azul

By Melissa Wyse (Author), Kate Lewis (Illustrator)

Favorite quote: “By 1939 (…..) Frieda Kahlo herself moved back into Casa Azul. She and Rivera divorced briefly that year and then remarried in late 1940. Afterward, Kahlo made arrangements for her husband to come and live with her at Casa Azul. As she prepared for his arrival, she sketched out a floor plan, each space labeled with handwritten references to her family’s history there and to the future life she would lead there with Rivera. The floor plan is funny and tender, and it shows how she reimagined her house and the ways they might live there together.”
