This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Balneator designed from a painting by Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema shows an attendant standing against a marble wall in one of the largest most luxurious rooms of a Roman bathhouse. He stands at attention waiting to attend the next guest. The tools he carries are devices used to strip oil from the skin, and he also engages in massage and bathing each individual. Water gushes out of the mouths of the sculpted lions in the fountain from behind. 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.
