This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Chess Players designed from a painting by Jacques Clement Wagrez shows elegant noble figures engrossed in a game of chess on a sunlit terrace overlooking a lush landscape while a vibrant peacock perches on the balustrade. If you stare hard enough, you can almost imagine catching the sweet scent of blooming roses and warm summer breeze floating across the marble loggia. The palette of colors in this scene is rich, bold, and vibrant, complementing its beauty and elegance and making it a masterpiece when finished. If you have a formal den, family room, or study, one of those locations of distinction would be ideal for this scene. 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.
