This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Sir Galahad designed from a painting by Dante Gabriel Rossetti shows the noble knight kneeling in prayer before an alter while in the presence of the Holy Spirit and surrounded by a chorus of holy angels under a golden glow. The original title is as follows: How Sir Galahad, Sir Bors and Sir Percival Were Fed with the Sanct Grael; but Sir Percival’s Sister Died by the Way. They are on an important quest for the Holy Grail. They sailed on a ship, and on the way, Sir Percival's sister died by offering her blood as a sacrifice to heal a leperous woman and ended up losing her own life along the way. In this scene, the rest of the group has finally arrived, and you can almost catch the sweet scent of myrrh drifting through the cool autumn air while warm sunlight hits the rich tapestries. 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.
