Google unveils first virtual collection of works by Frida Kahlo

Google Arts and ulture presents “Faces of Frida” the first virtual collection of artworks by Frida Kahlo (Coyoacán, 1907 - 1954). The project was made possible through a collaboration between Google Art Project and some of the world’s leading museums such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Fundación Leo Matiz, Museo Dolores Olmedo, and Museo Frida Kahlo in Mexico City.

“Faces of Frida,” available as of May 25, 2018 at this address, catalogs more than 800 works by the Mexican artist, including drawings never before put on display such as "View of New York," a drawing depicting the Big Apple as seen through a window of the Barbizon Plaza Hotel.

The project is also an opportunity to learn more about the history of this maverick and revolutionary artist, thanks to thematic sections, videos and writings on the subject. Thanks to Art Camera, a Google technology, it is also possible to see the very high resolution images in great detail.
