Scarlet Quince MIL006lg Bubbles by John Everett Millais Counted Cross Stitch Chart- Large Size Symbols

A counted cross stitch pattern of a young boy with golden hair blowing bubbles. The bubbles symbolize the transience of life. The plant to the boy's right represents life and the broken pot on his left, death. The painting was later modified and used as a Pear's Soap advertisement and became widely known in that form. The model, the artist's grandson, eventually became an admiral, but was known all his life as "Bubbles". (1886) This pattern is solidly stitched. Any color fabric may be used.
