From 1930 to 1931, Frida Kahlo lived in San Francisco, where she was treated by the pioneering doctor Leo Eloesser for her chronic medical problems. After being injured in a serious bus accident as a young woman, she would experience persistent medical complications and back pain and Dr. Eloesser became both her most trusted medical advisor and lifelong friend. She dedicated this portrait to her dear "doctorcito."
The artwork holds a striking story-- Kahlo's pain from her health issues, the importance of religious and cultural symbolism to her, and her love for her friend.
