This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Brig Mercury Attacked by Two Turkish Ships designed from a painting by Ivan Aivazovsky shows a battle taking place in the water where the two ships of Turkish origin have engaged in full attack on the Brig Mercury ship. The water appears glassy, blue and icy while the sky appears to be preparing for doom with its black clouds hovering above the offenders. The ocean itself, acting as a witness, is ready to give in to the outcome whatever it may be and swallow the loser into its great depths. 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.
