This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Shepherd in the Alps designed from a painting by Joseph Vernet shows a shepherd tending his flock beside a seated companion beneath a towering leafy tree as dramatic alpine peaks rise into a cloud-filled sky. You can almost catch the crisp scent of alpine pine and cool mountain air drifting down the valley while soft sunlight breaks through the clouds. Notice the way the warm light highlights the lush landscape! The large, stately tree is providing shade for the shepherd and his companion while the voluminous clouds form a canopy in the sky with every shade of blue. This pattern is worth the stitch and deserves a place of distinction in your home. 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.
