I found this fascinating article about Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo and the 'diva' Maria 'La Doña' Félix over at the always interesting Messy Nessy (see link below)
The phrase ‘femme fatale’ must have been invented for ‘La Doña’ – diva of the golden age of Mexican cinema, María Félix. Strong-willed, outspoken, controversial and drop-dead gorgeous, her life story is that of a movie script, an escapee from desperate and humble beginnings, teenage beauty queen, silver screen actress with multiple marriages and even more bisexual love affairs, not to mention one particularly high profile ménage à trois that got her wrapped up in the tangled sheets of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera’s famously fiery relationship.
check it out worth a read for art buffs and not . . . . .
