Description

This design was inspired by an early eighteenth century English needlework picture executed in tent stitch: a magnificent example of the art of "needle painting" by the meticulous employment of silk threads on fine linen. This exotic scene illustrates foreign creatures new to the English people. This type of depiction was popular with the upper middle class audience, intrigued by the fascinating discoveries being made by explorers and men of science.

Stitched over two threads on 40 count linen, this finished piece will measure approximately 12-1/2" x 11-1/2".

Only cross stitch is used to execute the design, so it is recommended for any skill level.
