This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled American Shipping of the Rock of Gibraltar designed from a painting by Ivan Aivazovsky shows ships sailing off from the rock of Gibraltar. As in many of the artist's works, the amazing sunset dominates the scene providing a glow that is complementary to all other figures like the ships, the water, etc. The water is a lovely shade of aqua that glistens in the sun. The ships and boats are being tossed about and all those aboard are hoping that they vessel does not take on water. Only full cross stitches are used in our patterns. No blended colors are used. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect.
