This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Sword-Bearing Page, also known as Young Page in Florentine Garg, by Alexandre Cabanel shows a gorgeous young dark-haired lad with expressive dark eyes who is dressed in vibrant bright colors posing as he wields a heavy sword he has been put in service to keep until told to do otherwise. Pages were often young boys who were in training to become knights. This pattern deserves to be placed in an area of distinction of your home. Notice that the red and royal blue colors in the boy's clothing are a striking contrast and complement well the gold and cream patterned mosaic background. No blended colors are used in our patterns. We only use an abundance of solid colors as it produces a more realistic effect. Only full cross stitches are used in our designs.
