This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Phaedra designed from a painting by Alexandre Cabanel shows Phaedra lying on her divan with others attending where she is at the moment contemplating taking her own life and is in emotional turmoil due to her son's rebuffs at the thought of her engaging in an incestuous relationship with him. The colors in the scene are somber and dim lighting is used to create a scene in preparation for death. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we only use an abundance of solid colors to produce a more realistic effect
