Portrait
of
Ruth Quintanilla
1927
Between 1925 and
1927 Kahlo painted several portraits of her friends and family. One of
them was of her friend Ruth Quintanilla. The whereabouts of this painting
are unknown. The image shown here is a photo of the painting taken by
Frida's father, Guillermo Kahlo. The painting is signed and dated in the
lower right corner: "Junio 1927 - Frieda Kahlo" (June
1927 - Frieda Kahlo). It's possible that it is another one of the paintings
that Kahlo herself destroyed because she was not satisfied with the results.
In the lower right-hand
corner of the 1927 Kahlo painting "If Adelita"
a portion of the painting "Portrait of Ruth Quintanilla"
can be seen.

Retrato de
Ruth Quintanilla
1927
Entre 1925 y 1927
Kahlo pintó varios retratos de sus amigos y familia. Uno de ellos
era de su amiga Ruth Quintanilla. No se conoce el paradero de este cuadro;
la imagen mostrada aquí es una foto de la pintura tomada por el
padre de Frida, Guillermo Kahlo. El retrato esta firmado y fechado en
la esquina inferior derecha: "Junio 1927, Frieda Kahlo"
. Es posible que fuera otro de los retratos que Frida destruyó
porque no estaba satisfecha con los resultados.
En la esquina inferior
derecha del retrato "Si Adelita"
(mostrado en la imagen) se puede ver una esquina del "Retrato
de Ruth Quintanilla"
