The Wounded Table (La mesa herida in Spanish) is an oil painting by Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.

[6] The table is spattered with blood and framed by a theatrical curtain, providing a stagelike setting, and she is surrounded by a precolumbian Nayarit figurine (part of her by now ex-husband Diego Rivera's collection), a papier-mâché skeleton (often called a Judas-like figure), two children, and her pet deer Granizo.

[6] "A Tehuana-clad Kahlo shares a long table with the cord- and dynamite-wrapped male figure and the skeleton of Four Inhabitants.

Blood is never far removed from the heart, and in this particular work the skeleton is touched by the bloodheart linking the skeletal death figure with the heart-life.

"[8] In June 2019 Mexican authorities announced the arrest of a man in Morelos State who was attempting to sell the painting.
