This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Madame Bergeret designed from a painting by Francois Boucher shows a young woman posing in a garden wearing a white satin dress embellished with flowers and a blue satin ribbon at her cleavage. She wears a garland of white flowers around her neck, and flowers of pink and blue are interspersed throughout her hair. Her arm rests upon a nearby table while her other hand is holding her straw hat. The artist meant to portray the scene with countrified flavor siting basic subtleties like the straw hat and the wooden table; however, this does not seem countrified at all and seems to portray a great deal of formality and the height of fashion during that time period. In any case, in my opinion it is a fine example of formality which would look impressive in any formal setting in your home earning a place of distinction! 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.
