House no. 4
Not altogether sure about the central military motif, but the working of the design makes me think of Scherenschnitte (Wiki link here), a type of paper-cutting art that arose in Switzerland and Germany in the 1500s.

This square shape has really encouraged your to release you inner sense of geometry!
This is so interesting. there are 13 candles/lights on the dome. I like the bright wall too.
Neat. I'd like to have one of those above my door!
I would not be too concerned about the similarity of the military motif to events during the 20th century. I have no doubt this illustration predates that considerably. You only have to note that the figure on the left is spinning ...
That is QUITe a decoration. I like it.
I have some of that paper art...didn't know the name. Thank you! The picture really caught my eye on the portal.
