Google celebrates Mexican Painter Frida Kahlo’s Birthday

Posted on July 6, 2010 by Reg825

I had to save this picture for posterity:

I think this is one of the coolest logo doodles that Google has ever done.  Just genious. 

Here’s a few links of the coverage it received:

Los Angeles Times

The Guardian

The Advocate

New York Daily News

ABC News

Here’s a list of previous Google doodles.

PS: have you seen the movie yet? Salma Hayek did great job playing Frida.

Update: here’s a cool list of Frida quotes. Here’s my favorite:

They are so damn `intellectual` and rotten that I can`t stand them anymore….I [would] rather sit on the floor in the market of Toluca and sell tortillas, than have anything to do with those `artistic` bitches of Paris.
