About
Portrait of María Félix is a painting of the famous Mexican film actress and singer. In this work, she is depicted gazing directly at the viewer which draws their attention into her face. She is nude but holding up a pink cloth that is covering her breasts. Rivera uses vibrant colors in this portrait to contrast the darker background. The light shines from the side onto her body, and Rivera uses shading to show the effect of light and to highlight different parts of her torso, neck, and face. Rivera emphasizes the sensuality of the portrait by colors such as red and pink to contrast with her light skin and the dark background rendering her face and body prominent compared to the rest of the painting.
