Portrait of Luther Burbank - Frida Kahlo

L'œuvre en bref

In this work, Frida Kahlo paid tribute to the American botanist Luther Burbank, famous for his agricultural experiments. The painting shows him in hybrid form: his torso emerges from a tree trunk, while his legs are replaced by a root system. Below ground, his skeleton is stretched out, literally feeding the tree he has become. The landscape around him is a cultivated orchard, evoking abundance and transformation.

This visual metaphor underlines the idea of continuity between life, death and nature. By taking root in the earth, Burbank becomes an integral part of the cycle of plant life, embodying her own ideas about hybridisation and regeneration. Here, Frida Kahlo explores a form of spirituality in which death is fertile and inseparable from growth. The whole gives off an atmosphere that is both serene and strange, marking the influence of Mexican thought on death.
