This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Henry VIII's First Interview with Anne Boleyn by Daniel Maclise shows King Henry VIII totally smitten and besotted by the affections of Anne Boleyn who was considered to be vivacious and stimulating in her time. Let us not forget that King Henry was still married at this time when he sought to woo Anne's hand in marriage, but that didn't stop him because he desperately needed an heir to the throne. If you look more closely, most of those in attendance at this introduction seem to be involved in their own private conversations, while one person in the background in particular seems embarrassed by the spectacle of the matter. The colors used present a warm gaiety with golden and rosy red tints. If you are a history buff and appreciate this point in history, this would make an interesting conversation piece in your home. No blended colors are used in our patterns. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect. Only full cross stitches are used in our designs.
