Kahlo and the 'knot'


It's #StaffordshireDay today (May 1st), the day in the year when one celebrates all things Staffordshire.
So I thought I'd put up another image of a 'Stafford Knot', the symbol of the county.

I found this painting, by the famous Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, among a number of other pictures, on the walls in a bar in Newcastle. It's called 'Self-Portrait with A Braid' - and the braid resembles a Stafford Knot.
Well, maybe...!
