Frida Kahlo Museum (and Trotsky museum) in Coyoacan (photos)

Frida Kahlo was born, grew up and later lived with her muralist husband Diego Rivera, from 1941 until her death at age 47 in 1954 here and all her stuff including painting tools are still in place and her bed with her body cast and etc. still in place. Other rooms contain her colorful Tehuana costumes and pre-Columbian jewelry, her diary, masks, more idols, and giant papier-mache Judas figures, monsters traditionally filled with firecrackers and exploded on Sabado de Gloria, the Saturday before Easter. Also on display are paintings by Rivera, Paul Klee, Jose Maria Velasco and the couple's friends Marcel Duchamp and Yves Tanguy. Trotsky's house is still in the exact way it was left. The bullet holes in the wall are close enough to touch, and his study where he was assasinated still has his glasses on the desk.
