Frida Kahlo As A Gift For Girlfriend

Hello,
my girlfriend really loves Frida Kahlo and I'd love to give her some reproduction of her painting as a christmas gift. Which one would you recommend and what technology? Thanks

best to just do a search and see what comes up. as for substrate, many like metal. but it depends on her tastes and what she already has. if she has canvas or framed prints you should get something that matches.

For me if I was buying a print of a painting I would go canvas

Hi Peter. As Mike states : just do a search here. Then pick out the one that looks like it would match with your GF's choice of favorite colors or home décor.
Pretty much can't go wrong that way.
A Frida Kahlo image tends to use bold strong color - try canvas or acrylic

Like the originals: big and on canvas. Metal prints do not match her style.

Thank you all for your answers. I'm also considering canvas, I think it looks more like "original", that's just my opinion, I'm not that much into paintings...
My first choice is Frida Kahlo Venadito, 30x23 cm canvas, it's her favorite. I hope it'll make her happy. But that's not my final decision, maybe I'll find something else

Peter...if it's already her favorite, half the work is done!
Hope she loves it!
