According to Christian belief, at the Annunciation the Angel Gabriel presents the Blessed Virgin Mary with a lily, to signifying her purity, holiness & role as the mother of Jesus. It is also said that lilies bloomed from the tears shed by the Virgin Mary at the Crucifixion of Jesus. This association has solidified the white lily’s symbolism of purity & divine grace within the Christian faith. In Christian iconology, lilies have long been associated with love, beauty, purity, innocence & symbols of new beginnings.
