This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled William Gordon (British Army Officer) designed from a painting by Pompeo Batoni shows that he was a general and courtier in the British army. He is the son of William Gordon, 2nd Earl of Aberdeen and his wife Lady Ann Gordon. He attended Edinburgh University and is pictured here wearing his uniform of the 105th regiment in tartan plaids. During that time he had been touring Europe and commissioned the artist to paint his likeness. He made a lifetime career in the army of rising up through the ranks to colonel and died in 1816. 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.
