Popis: The animal, guardian of the magical rites, is an usual theme of surrealists. Frida Kahlo, seriously injured in this flesh, finds refuge next to her guardian pets which are considered like the idol in the colombia civilization. Her parrots, her dwarf stag, her small and dark monkey are the faithful companions. The other companions are her itzcuintli dogs descended from an old mexican race that aztec Xoloti god should have offered to the humanity to lead towards this one to the world of the death. We will also mention the sphinx of Leonor Fini, the hyena of Leonora Carrington which belongs to the fertile world of the night, just as her white horse, sacred animal in the Celtic mythology and in chamans of the central Asia.These painters women appropriate through the selfportrait the magical strenght of animals, as theirs totems like in the primitive religions.
