Product Description
The Frida Kahlo Talavera tile mural pays tribute to one of Mexico’s most iconic artists. A radiant background in gold tones surrounds her figure, symbolizing light and vitality. Frida’s gaze is steady, framed by braided hair and bold brows. A crown of flowers introduces purple, red, and white, while emerald leaves create natural movement. Outlined details in black emphasize strength and identity. The composition balances flat planes of color with sharp edges for clarity. Each tile is painted by hand, ensuring alignment across seams.
