This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Echo and Narcissus designed from a painting by John William Waterhouse shows Echo watching as Narcissus gazes at his reflection in the pond.  According to Greek Mythology, Narcissus, who was very handsome, was promised a long life but only if he rejected the advances of women and did not look at his own reflection. Echo became infatuated with Narcissus and made it known to him, but he rejected her.  Echo, in retaliation, sought the help of Nemesis who made Narcissus only want to look at his own reflection, and once he took a look at his refection in a pond, he could not tear his eyes away his own likeness and stared endlessly at his own reflection remaining there until he died.  Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect.
