This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Motherland designed from a painting by William Adolphe Bouguereau shows a symbolic representation of Western civilization in comparison to Eastern civilization where a woman sitting in a superior position on an elevated platform represents Western civilization while children from other parts of the world (children from colonization) are clamoring for her attention. The mountains are looming high in the background nearly reaching the threatening skies. 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
