When Frida Kahlo painted My Dress Hangs There, she had been living in New York for three years, and was both homesick and isolated.

"[the painting] represents an ironic portrait of American capitalism and superficiality. Filled with symbols of a modern American industrial society, it points to social decay and the destruction of fundamental human values."

  1. What do you think of the quote in your blog post? What are the "fundamental human values"? Is your quote taken from Frida Kahlo?
