This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Smolny as Seen from Bolshaya Okhta designed from a painting by Alexey Bogolyubov shows a Russian waterscape highlighting the "Smolny" which in Russia means "the tarring yard" which was an area designated for tarring of the surface of ships to make them waterproof. It's a clear day and the sun is out indicating a beautiful day. 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.
