This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled The Three Graces designed from a painting by Emile Vernon shows three young women adorned with floral crowns gathering blossoms in a garden. The title The Three Graces refers to the Charites from Greek and Roman mythology—the goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity, and fertility. Traditionally named Aglaia (Elegance/Brightness), Euphrosyne (Mirth/Joy), and Thalia (Youth/Bloom), these three figures were popular subjects in classic art, symbolizing grace, harmony, and natural beauty. The delicate pastel tones and gentle expressions are well noted. 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.
