Diego Rivera "Flower Day"

The picture above is a painting done by Diego Rivera. This painting is called Flower Day. In old Mexican traditions they used to give flowers to god. I believe in this painting there is a flower for every sin that has been committed in their town. Offering these flowers to god is their way of asking for forgiveness. Since the color white is pure they offer white calle lilies, and everybody gathers for this so they can have a fresh start together.
