Laurel for successful graduations and other worthy accomplishments

Who doesn't know about the laurel branch, especially when woven into a crown, the ultimate recognition of accomplishments, particularly in the areas of learning and the humanities (did you know that...More......

...Petrarch was the first to receive a laurel crown, after centuries of disuse?). So, here's a strip of lovely laurel from a building in via Mascheroni, just like the lion.

I snapped this photo with you in mind on the 22nd of May, 2011, around 10:45 A.M., for your personal, non-commercial enjoyment.

If you'd like to see the needlepoint/cross stitch design I created using this photograph, go to my "Ars acupicturae stellae - Star's Needlepoint Art": http://arsacupicturaestellae.blogspot.com/2011/06/milan-monday-33-strip-of-laurel.html.

Enjoy!
