This fine art counted cross-stitch pattern entitled Valeria designed from a painting by William Clarke Wontner shows an elegant dark-haired young woman in vibrant blue robes against a pale marble background. Valeria embodies that late Victorian and Edwardian fascination with classical and orientalist aesthetics. Rather than presenting a straightforward, contemporary society portrait, Wontner depicts her as an idealized muse—dressed in a rich, sapphire-blue patterned robe draped over fine fabric, styled with softly swept-back dark hair, porcelain skin, and an expression of quiet contemplation. 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.
