This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Course of Empire, The Arcadian or Pastoral State designed from a painting by Thomas Cole shows the idealized way the world should look according to the artist before civilization and industrialization with pastoral bucolic scenery, rolling hills, peaceful settings and quiet time with animals quietly grazing. 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.
