This religious counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Red Cross designed from a painting by Evelyn De Morgan shows a powerful, symbolic depiction of Christ in a vibrant red robe, ascending amidst a host of celestial angels against a dark, dramatic sky. In this scene, the spiritual triumph over the devastation of war is taking place, using the "Red Cross" as a symbol of sacrifice and divine protection. The vibrant hues are dominated by the intense, radiant crimson of the central figure’s robes, contrasted by the soft, iridescent whites of the angels' wings and the deep, somber tones of the landscape below. This pattern would be perfect for lovers of Pre-Raphaelite and symbolic art who appreciate intricate detail and deeply emotional storytelling. The scene captures the ethereal silence of a transcendental moment, where the brilliance of the divine breaks through the shadows of the world. 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.
