Scarlet Quince WAT020-Dlg La Belle Dame Sans Merci -detail- by John William Waterhouse Counted Cross Stitch Chart- Large Size Symbols

A counted cross stitch pattern of a barefoot girl, seated on the ground among daisies, twining her long hair about the neck of a knight in armor. He leans in to kiss her, entranced, but will soon become her next victim. "I met a lady in the meads,/ Full beautiful--a faery's child,/ Her hair was long, her foot was light,/ And her eyes were wild./ ...She took me to her elfin grot..." -- John Keats. This is a detail from the original painting, which we also offer. See WAT020 for the full painting.(Pre-Raphaelite, 1893). This pattern is solidly stitched. Any color fabric may be used.
