This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Empress Elisabeth of Austria designed from a painting by Bertalan Székely shows a regal empress adorned in an ornate white lace gown and tiara, resting her hand beside an imperial crown in a grand palace interior. Behind her are heavy draperies in wine and burgundy coloring with golden wall sconces and emerald green candles. Her cloak of ermine is seen draped from a chair and trailing onto the floor, and the carpeting is a print design of burgundy and green. If you appreciate royal history like myself, you can almost smell the faint scent of polished mahogany and sweet violet perfume drifting on a soft morning breeze. This pattern is very detailed and is a challenge to stitch, but when finished, you will have created a masterpiece worthy of display! Our patterns use only full cross stitches. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
