This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Emerald Pool designed from a painting by Albert Bierstadt shows a gorgeous clearing in the White Mountains of New Hampshire with clarity so great that it resembles a photograph. This scene is, in fact, the artist's greatest achievement, and it is what has brought him his claim to fame by creating a large-scale landscape painting in panoramic formation by using stereoscopic views usually seen in travel magazines and tour guides of that day. The scene is a celebration of nature in its most raw form with every detail replicated on canvas. From the many shades of green in the trees to the pool that looks almost like onyx in color to the bold monolithic mountains in the background; there is plenty of detail to take in with the naked eye. This piece, when finished, will be a masterpiece and certainly worthy of displaying in an area of distinction of your home. 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
