Lily flowers are said to speak of purity, innocence, and chastity. In some cultures, the trumpet-like flower has evoked associations of erotic love and procreation. In Greco-Roman mythology, it was believed to have come from the milk of the goddess Juno. To the Jews, its the emblem of the tribe of Judah. Ancient Egyptians and Greeks connected the flower with fertility because of its erotic fragrance. In Christianity, its associated with Virgin Mary representing her purity as seen in early paintings and art.

The choices and styles for lily flower tattoo designs are seemingly endless, from a realistic full-color image to a black tribal floral design, anything is possible. It can also be incorporated into many different styles and imagery, making them a great accent to other pieces or even used as filler in full sleeve and full back tattoos.

In terms of placement, you can either go for the foot, wrist, ankle or lower stomach if you want to go for designs on a smaller scale. For elaborate and detailed lily flower designs, the rib, arm, shoulder blade and back are good body canvas and perfect for accomodating size on a larger scale.

There are indeed a myriad of ways to work with the lily flower as a tattoo design. You just have to use your own creativity and imagination to come up with something that you will be happy and be proud of for the rest of your life.
