This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Ruin designed from a painting by Hubert Robert shows the towering, decaying pillars of an ancient classical temple crumbling alongside a stone statue while small figures gather in the shadows below under a vast, pink-hued sky. The heavy, humid evening air carries the rustic scent of damp moss, overgrown ivy, and sun-warmed stone, capturing the weathered monument at its prime. One cannot help being deeply moved by the way the brilliant sunset breaks through the clouds to cast a golden glow across the landscape, creating a soft pastel sky. No doubt, translating these soft peach tones and deep, shadowy columns onto your canvas will bring a profound sense of peaceful focus to your project. 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.
