This painting was inspired by Georgia's O'Keeffe's painting about Magnolias. The difference is in Kahlo's painting the magnolias are only in the bud stage but in Georgia O'Keeffe's version, the flower is in full blossom. In Frida Kahlo's painting, in the center of the bunch of magnolias is a large pear cactus flower. This flower is extremely sensitive and when it bloomed the blossom last only a few hours.
