This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Paalhuis & the Nieuwe Brug, Amersterdam designed from a painting by Jan Abrahamsz Beerstraten shows a scene of an old industrial city with smoke and clouds billowing about. People are out milling about engaged in conversation, business, and shopping. The air appears to be cold which is why the townspeople are dressed in warm overcoats to accommodate for the cold temperatures. Frost and a thin layer of snow is seen on the rooftops. This is a beautiful unique looking town with a lovely style of architecture. 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.
