This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Italians Under an Aqueduct in a High-lying Town at a Lake designed from a painting by Carl Frederik Aagaard shows people congregating under the aqueduct, and at the top of the stairs leading to the aqueduct. A large brick archway dominates the scene and is quite beautiful in the way the plants and trees growing on it hang down like feathery fronds swaying in the gentle breeze. Beyond the archway, we can see a glimpse of the ocean, and on top of a hill, there is a large building. You can almost imagine yourself being there under the shade of the archway feeling the gentle breeze and the slight sounds of gentle laughter and talk amongst the people. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
