This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Return designed from a painting by Thomas Cole shows the conflict between the lure of settlement and civilization at the expense of destroying the natural beauty of the wilderness and the lay of the land. The artist imparts his love and appreciation for natural landscapes and focuses his many works on this genre. The scene shows two horsemen arriving at a cathedral whose steeples rise high into the air. The sun is setting and big beautiful trees are stationed in various locales around the cathedral. There is a play of light and dark colors showing the magic of contrast. 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.
