Where it works
Three crimson Masdevallia flowers hang like lanterns from thin stalks, yellow-tipped, over sage leaves and small pencil dissections on a pale cream page. The burgundy-and-sage pairing suits a bedroom or a powder room with brass, at 12×18 in black, and sits well with the scarlet Pride of Table Mountain.
