First edition. Octavo; hardcover, with marbled endpapers, gilt spine-titling and gilt upper board decoration; 295pp., many full-page colour & monochrome photographic illustrations. Inscription; pages very slightly rippled; light wear to dustwrapper. Else near fine. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. Covering the years 1944- 54 the 170 page journal contains the thoughts, poems, and dreams of Frida Kahlo. The seventy watercolour illustrations - some lively sketches, several elegant self-portraits, others complete paintings - offer insights into her creative process, the diary frequently being used to work out pictorial ideas. The text entries written in round, full script in brightly coloured inks add an almost decorative quality making the journal as captivating to look at as it is to read. This personal document published in a full-colour facsimile edition is accompanied by an introduction by Carlos Fuentes and a complete translation of the diary's text. Also included is an essay by Sarah M Lowe.
