Cross-stitching of landscapes, paintings depicting pristine nature or with man-made additions, scenes with the seasons is a popular genre in needlework. Natural, rural, mountain landscapes look beautiful in a classic interior. Modern embroideries are full of life, colors, individualism in the transfer of color and perspective. Attention to detail and the ever-increasing quality of the components make the embroidery realistic.
What landscapes can you choose for cross stitching?
Natural - with embroidered images of the nature around us - lakes, rivers and any water bodies, various types of landscape - mountains, plains, ravines, various flora - forest landscapes - trees, shrubs and flowers. Images of people, animals and birds are effectively woven into the natural landscape. But, it is worth noting that their role in the embroidered picture is secondary. They only enhance and emphasize the greatness of nature. Their task is to revive the area. Man-made structures such as stairs and bridges also play a secondary role in the natural landscape.
The natural direction also includes paintings with heavenly bodies, stars. The cosmic landscape as a genre of art has been formed recently, but it has already found its admirers in cross-stitch. The vault of heaven and astronomical bodies - the sun, stars and comets for dreamers of the unknown.
Rural or rural - with cross-embroidered houses, mills and villagers - idealistic shepherdesses, herds of animals grazing on fields or mountain slopes. Such embroidery will decorate the interior in Provence style.
A park (or manor) landscape is an image of an ennobled landscape touched by a human hand. In such cross-stitch pictures, as a rule, there is an image of a person - men and women walking in the park, children playing on the lawns.
Landscapes are usually divided according to the time of year. Many kit manufacturers produce such plots in series, made in the same style and size, united by a common theme of embroideries. These can be houses of the seasons series, like the "MAGIC NEEDLE" series, or nature sketches, like in the "Charivna Mit" sets.
