This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled The Shipwreck designed from a painting by Ivan Aivazovsky shows extreme turmoil on the open seas as a major storm sends several ships into ruin tossing them violently about with high winds and rain. Some of the men on the ship have escaped the main vessel and are perilously clinging to their modest rowboats with any supplies they could salvage. In spite of the scene taking place on the water, the colors used are earth tones in browns, grays and black to highlight the intensity of the storm. 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.
