This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Prayer in Cairo designed from a painting by Jean Leon Gerome shows Muslim men engaged in prayer on a rooftop in Cairo. This is taking place at sunset, and a Mosque can be seen in the background. The sky looks like a golden haze, preparing for nighttime hues of dusk and darkness. The men are praying on rugs or mats with their shoes removed, which is customary for their traditional worship. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
