Where it works
Katherine Milhous's WPA Pennsylvania Germans poster, a black-clad couple flanking a red-and-yellow tulip motif on dark green, with folk-art flowers and bold blue lettering. Folk and festive, it suits a kitchen, dining room or hallway on dark green or red walls at 18×24 in natural wood, with her Little Red Schoolhouse.
