Zantedeschia aethiopica is a march plant imported to the US from South Africa in the mid-19th century. The exotic flowers became immensely popular in the art world of the early 20th century as Imogen Cunningham, Georgia O’Keeffe, Diego Rivera, and Edward Weston provocatively represented them in their photographs and paintings. Despite the many sensual interpretations of the calla lily’s form in modern art, the flower has also been associated with purity.
