THE FOUR SEASONS - The Scarlet Letter

Another one of our original sampler designs takes its inspiration from such diverse sources as a Middle English poem, and early 19th century English and American pictorial samplers and naive paintings of livestock. The design begins in autumn, and proceeds along a path signposted with the four lines of a cryptic early English poem, translated here:

KEEP WELL X (the 10 commandments)
FLEE FROM VII (the 7 deadly sins)
RULE WELL V (your 5 senses)
AND COME TO HEAVEN
 

We pass through winter, into spring and summer, and end with the symbolic river of life flowing across the bottom.
