Vertumnus and Pomona – Paulus Moreelse

From: £2.00

The legend of Vertumnus and Pomona. Pomona was a wood nymph whose passion was all for her orchards and vineyards, in which men were not allowed.  The god Vertumnus appeared to her in various disguises, finally as an old woman.  Here the beautiful Pomona, decked with cherries, grapes, and apples, is holding her trademark pruning knife, as Vertumnus in disguise chides her for her hard-heartedness.  He points to a vine twining about a tree, and tells how the tree and vine would each be useless without the other.  (Dutch Master, 1625) This pattern is solidly stitched. Any color fabric may be used.

14 count kits can come with either 14 count aida or 28 count evenweave (for stitching over 2)
18 and 20 count kits are provided with aida
