September 5 - Swan

"The swan, like the soul of the poet, by the dull world is ill understood."

~ Heinrich Heine

In Arthurian legend, Lohengrin, son of Percival was called called 'Knight of the Swan'.

Legend has it he arrived in a boat to defend the honor of Elsa of Brabant who was accused of murdering her brother.  He married her with the one stipulation that she never ask his name.

... and so she ended up alone.   Makes me wonder about her brother ...

This design is one that Isopresso shared just recently on their channel, a quick build that captures the simple elegance.
