#FridaKahlo gave this painting to one of her friend, Mary Sklar. She gave her a mirror to go with it so both friends could be together if Mary stood in front of the mirror. 'Fulang-Chang and I'

#Frida's nude upper body covered with acanthus leaves and a heavy pre-Columbian-style jade necklace emphasize the elaborate hairdo, with her long thickly braided hair piled up on top of her head. The braid's figure eight recalls the "love knot". 'Self-Portrait with Braid'

#FridaKahlo painted this portrait of Diego Rivera at one of the most complex moments of their relationship. They had separated two years earlier and would formally divorce in 1939, before reconciling and remarrying the following year. 'Portrait of Diego Rivera'

Jacques Gelman was introduced to #FridaKahlo by Diego Rivera and soon commissioned a portrait of his wife from her. #Kahlo depicted Natasha with sobriety and intimacy. After its completion, the Gelmans would become important supporters of her work. 'Portrait of Natasha Gelman'

This work is often considered emblematic of the sorrow #FridaKahlo felt at being unable to bear a child. It perhaps refers less to this unsatisfied desire than to the complex, contradictory feelings the artist seems to have experienced regarding maternity. 'Me and My Doll'

In this self-portrait, #FridaKahlo has cast off the feminine attributes with which she often depicted herself—such as traditional Tehuana dresses or flowers in her hair—and instead sports a loose-fitting man’s suit and short-clipped haircut. 'Self-Portrait with Cropped Hair'

We hoped you enjoyed our little #FridaKahlo special! What an incredible she is! 'Self-Portrait with Necklace'

Dali! For the next few days, we will explore the life and work of #SalvadorDali! Stay tuned!

#SalvadorDalí utilized his theory of "nuclear mysticism," a fusion of Catholicism, mathematics, and science, to create this unusual interpretation of Christ’s crucifixion. The artist’s wife, Gala, poses as a devotional figure. 'Crucifixion (Corpus Hypercubus)'

Did you know that 'The Persistence of Memory' by #SalvadorDali was given by an anonymous donor to the MoMA The Museum of Modern Art in New York? It is certainly his most recognizable image with its distinctive melting clocks. And the painting is quite small (9.5 in x 13 in).

#SalvadorDalí created 'Anthropomorphic Tower' at a time in his career when he aligned himself with the Surrealists and began to produce dreamlike images charged with sexual desires and anxieties. Dalí used the motif several times during this period.

In the early 1930s, #SalvadorDali promoted the idea of the surrealist object, of which this is a classic example. Lobsters and telephones had strong sexual connotations for him, and he drew a close analogy between food and sex. 'Lobster Telephone'

In 1931 Dalí described Surrealist sculpture as “created wholly for the purpose of materializing in a fetishistic way, with maximum tangible reality, ideas and fantasies of a delirious character." 'Retrospective Bust of a Woman'

#SalvadorDalí compared the subconscious mind to having secret drawers, that could be opened at unexpected moments. He gave form to this idea in a contemporary version of the famous 'Venus de Milo'. 'Venus de Milo with Drawers'

Here is one of #SalvadorDali's famous quote: "Every morning upon awakening, I experience a supreme pleasure: that of being Salvador Dalí, and I ask myself, wonderstruck, what prodigious thing will he do today, this Salvador Dalí." 'Portrait of Dorothy Spreckels Munn'

Here #SalvadorDalí presented many unlikely associations. A copy of Jean-François Millet’s famous Angelus, in the background, Dalí’s wife, Gala, smiles at a figure resembling Lenin. 'Gala and the Angelus of Millet Immediately Preceding the Arrival of the Conic Anamorphoses'

We know from remarks by #SalvadorDali himself that the cut-outs are himself and his wife Gala. The objects on the table are repeated in an obvious visual rhyme in small figures in the landscape, then again in the landscape. 'A Couple with Their Heads Full of Clouds'

Bonjour Monsieur Monet! In the next few days, we will explore the work of Impressionist painter #ClaudeMonet. Get ready for a lovely voyage into haystacks, train stations, poplar trees and water lilies.

'Impression, sunrise' by #ClaudeMonet is one of the most famous impressionist painting. It actually gave the name to the Impressionist movement.
