Description
Dramatic night image of the White Egyptian Water Lily in bloom presents bold, graphic elements with a striking sense of contrast. Also known as Nymphaea waterlilies, these night blooming flowers perfectly symbolize innocence, purity, fertility, pleasure, celebration, hope, rebirth, wellness, and peace. All ancient cultures around the world have associated the white lilies with gods and spirituality.
Water lilies are an important religious symbol in the Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Buddhists regard the water lily as a symbol of enlightenment because of the beautiful bloom that emerges from the mud. They also consider the water lily a symbol of purity, spontaneous generation and divine birth.
