Which famous 20th-century painter lived in 'La Casa Azul' (The Blue House)?

The Frida Kahlo Museum, also known as 'La Casa Azul' (the Blue House) due to its cobalt-blue walls, is a historic house and art museum dedicated to the life and work of Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. It is located in Mexico City and was Kahlo's birthplace, home and death place. In 1957, her husband Diego Rivera donated the home and its contents in order to turn it into a museum.

Magdalena Carmen Frida Kahlo y Calderón (1907-1954) was a Mexican painter, usually known as Frida Kahlo. She is remembered for her surreal and very personal works. At 18, due to a traffic accident, she became disabled and had periods of severe pain for the rest of her life. After this accident, Kahlo took up painting and used the things that had happened to her as inspiration. Her paintings are often shocking in the way they show her pain and the harsh lives of women.

Kahlo's attention to female themes and the honesty in her paintings made her something of a feminist cult figure in the last decades of the 20th century. Some of her work is seen at the Frida Kahlo Museum, along with Mexican folk art, pre-Hispanic artefacts, photographs, memorabilia, and personal items.
