The Frame (El marco in Spanish) is a 1938 self-portrait by Frida Kahlo.[1] The painting is notable as the first work by a 20th-century Mexican artist to be purchased by a major international museum, when it was acquired by The Louvre in 1939. The painting is now shown at the Musée National d'Art Moderne in the Centre Pompidou in Paris.[2]
