This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Allegory of Africa designed from a painting by Jan Boeckhorst shows an allegorical presentation of Africa in the form of a black woman dressed in a colorful silk dress and a headdress made of pearls with a jewel in the center.  The manacle noted around her upper arm represents enslavement by the Turks, and she is posing with this arm stretched across her breast.  The sky behind her is filled with filmy luminous clouds with peaks of blue showing through.  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.
