Casa Azul, Frida Kahlo’s eccentric blue house in Mexico City, was the backdrop for countless intrigues. Between these indigo walls, the mexican painter Kahlo was born, recovered from a near-fatal car accident, married and lived with Diego Rivera, conducted her short-lived affair with Leon Trotsky. We visited Casa Azul and its lush gardens, as well as Trotsky’s house around the corner, where the Russian revolutionary spent his final days and was murdered.
