This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Carpet Merchant designed from a painting by Hermann David Salomon Corrodi shows a lively market square with carpet merchants busy selling their carpets to interested customers. The carpets are on display to attract customers, and a carpet has been used overhead like a tarp to shield shoppers from the unrelenting sun yet still allowing enough light to highlight the carpets on display. There is a contrast of shadow and light displayed by the artist that helps to drive our interests into taking a closer look at the scene and the beautiful colors used in this artwork. This would be a good pattern to stitch for all crafters who are into textile crafts like rug hooking and tapestries, etc. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors to produce a more realistic effect.
