Grandeur of Thistles
I saw images of thistles frequently while in Scotland, and for good reason-- the thistle is actually the national emblem of Scotland.
I like how this humble, resilient weed is celebrated. In fact, there are many myths and symbols devoted to it. (Google it, it is quite interesting!)
Many stylized depictions of thistles, such as this finial from a railing, serve as a good reminder that the common can be exquisite and the everyday full of grandeur.
