Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird by Frida Kahlo
Discover one of the artist's best-known works.
On View
Visitors to the Ransom Center have the opportunity to view one of Frida Kahlo's most iconic paintings: an untitled self-portrait known as Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird. The oil-on-canvas painting from 1940 is one of 55 self-portraits painted by the artist during her lifetime, and its format—featuring a head-and-shoulders view of Kahlo—is typical of her style of portraiture during this period. The painting's sophisticated composition and color selection, as well as its delicate brushwork, fine details, and skillful shading, mark it as a principal example of Kahlo's mature-style portraiture.
