Frida didn't hit her stride, generating her most popular, and defining works until shortly after this article. 1938 being a prolific year for her. Her husband was more well known at this point but she would eclipse him with certain audiences within the decade.

Yeah, i dont read the article as dismissing her. In fact they seem to appreciate her work and personality!

Diego Rivera, for anyone else that had forgotten his name.
