- ... that in 1984, Roland Poska created a 270-foot-long painting From Blue to Blue, which appears in Milwaukee's Henry S. Reuss Federal Plaza Building?

The painting sections are 6 to 8 feet high and 12 to 16 feet long. Before the painting was installed in Milwaukee, it was previewed in Rockford." http://www.lituanus.org/1987/87_4_06.htm "By 1984, the master print and paper maker was already a nationally known artist when he received the Henry S. Reuss Federal Plaza Art commission for his 270-foot-long painting exhibited in the middle of Main Street in downtown Rockford." http://www.mywebtimes.com/news/illinois_ap/rockford-artist-envisions-day-without-prejudice/article_deb85984-70a9-57d6-92ce-f49978e1d9c1.html

- Comment: @The Master: ALT1 says the painting is 270 feet high, but the article only says it is 270 feet. You need to add to the article that 270 feet is its height. And adding it's width would be appreciated, too. --Usernameunique (talk) 10:22, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
- Clarified length and added an additional source for that. Unfortunately I don't know the width. The Master ---)Vote Saxon(--- 00:06, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
New article, in time, long enough, no copyvios seen, sourced and hook checks out. Looks like this is your first DYK, so no QPQ needed.
