This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Le Printemps (Spring) designed from a painting by Eugene Bidau shows white doves fluttering around an old stone well draped in lush wisteria blossoms. Painted in the late nineteenth century, the scene celebrates nature's awakening as soft sunlight washes over an idyllic French courtyard garden. Cascades of lavender-purple wisteria and pale pink roses frame the weathered masonry, while bright yellow irises and potted hydrangeas flourish in full bloom below. Garden lovers, like myself, will treasure how the birds' white wings catch the crisp morning light, an effect that is simply breathtaking! This gentle springtime sanctuary will make a peaceful project to stitch. Our patterns use only full cross stitches. No blended colors are used. Instead, we use a variety of solid colors to achieve a more realistic effect.
