This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Harem Dance designed from a painting by Giulio Rosati shows a captivating dancer performing in an opulent, tiled courtyard surrounded by musicians and spectators resting on rich carpets. The warm, still afternoon air carries the dry scent of sun-baked stone, rich perfumes, and faint incense. Notice the complex yet beautiful patterns on the Moroccan tiled walls, including the soft light as it streams past the arches to illuminate the dancer's pink silks. Some of the women resting on the floor seem to be socializing, while others are transfixed by the one who is dancing and showcasing her talents. The setting is full of rhythm and vitality! 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.
