A yellow rose of friendship.
The only way to have a friend is to be one. There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship. Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.
By Emily Dickinson, found on brainy quotes

Though nothing can bring back the hour Of splendour in the grass, of glory in the flower;  We will grieve not, rather find  Strength in what remains behind;  In the primal sympathy  Which having been must ever be;  In the soothing thoughts that spring  Out of human suffering;
- Wordsworth Photograph: Robin Boardman

This flower was taken in the garden of Alhambra palace and fortress. It is located in Granada, Andalusia Spain. I thought the gardens were spectacular.

NOW ON VIEW IN SPECIAL COLLECTIONS
Plans, Elevations, Sections, and Details of the Alhambra
In exploring the Arts Collection for our rare book exhibit, curators Heather and Maya came upon the incredibly detailed and stunning lithographs and engravings in Jules Goury and Owen Jones's Plans, Elevations, Sections, and Details of the Alhambra. Through further research, we learned that this 2-volume set, published in London between 1842 and 1845, was one of the first published books to use the technique of chromolithography, a process that later dominated color reproduction for most of the second half of the 19th century. The set is also an important historical record of the Alhambra, created from drawings done at least twenty years before the first detailed photographic records were made. In 1836, while preparing the original drawings, Jules Goury died of cholera in Granada. This left Owen Jones with the complicated task of finding a printer capable of carrying out the work. He finally resolved to set up his own printing press. The experimental color printing process required up to seven pressings and nearly nine years of trial and error before the work was successfully completed. Jones’s flat colors anticipated the work of William Morris, the Pre-Raphaelites, and the Art Nouveau movement.
Due to its monumental size, we couldn't include this bound set in our exhibit, but it's now on view in the Special Collections reading room along with other portfolios of leaves in the exhibit. The exhibit runs through November 29, but the material in the reading room will be available to view through 2023.
