There are so many meanings for the representation of the Magnolia that can refer to Frida. Maybe that is why she favored them. Here are a few. The Pear Cactus Flower appears in several of Frida Kahlo's works as a symbol of life and death. In addition, there is an open calla lily to the right of the floral arrangement that is not at all evident. The calla lily was was her husband Diego Rivera's favorite flower and color, and it frequently appeared in Diego's artwork. The French botanist Pierre Magnolia gave the Magnolia Tree its name in the 1600s. The type of Magnolia selected will determine the flower's smell. Every hue has a distinct meaning. The White Magnolia Flower is a symbol of perfection and purity. Magnolia flowers were a Victorian-era sign of pride, grandeur, elegance, and dignity. Its robustness is also a representation of self-respect and self-worth. These flowers are frequently used in weddings because they stand for endurance, character strength, and bearing.
