Philokalia translates to "love of Beauty" (thanks Kaef!). So I thought it fitting to name this painting of ten calla lilies Calla Lilies Philokalia in celebration of the pure beauty of that flower. Incidentally, the term calla itself comes from a different root referring to "rooster's wattles".

Dedicado a Truco el perrito!
