The Jouy toile gardener
Product Details
The gardener, an emblematic motif of Toile de Jouy, embodies the simple, industrious life of the 18th century. Against an ecru background, this figure, like nature itself, reveals itself with understated elegance, poised between work and poetry. The monochrome blue or pink coloring accentuates the serenity of this bucolic scene, paying homage to the daily life of gardens of yesteryear.
The border is worked in counted cross stitch using the provided chart, allowing you to complete the design with precision and freedom. The kit includes: a hand-painted canvas, fine "La Royale" Aubusson wool for the design and background, a needle, and stitch instructions.
