This fine art counted cross stitch pattern entitled Young Shepherdess designed from a painting by William Adolphe Bouguereau shows a young girl dressed in a peasant style dress with her hair covered with a brick red and tan scarf. She is standing with her staff by a rustic fence made of tree limbs. The sheep she has been entrusted to herd can be seen grazing in the background just over the hill. The sky is overcast; however, the scene appears to be bucolic and calm. 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.
