Who and what is Gismonda?

Gismonda is one of the many roles played by the legendary French actress, Sarah Bernhardt (1844 - 1923). This design for cross-stitch is an adaptation of a poster created for her in 1894 by the Czechoslovakian - born artist, Alphonse Maria Mucha (1860 - 1939).

If you particularly like this design, Graeme recommended 'La Tosca' and 'La Trappistine' which can also be found at this web site.

For those who like the art of Mucha as much as Graeme did, included in his range are Amethyst, Emerald, and Ruby, as well as two monotones, Blue Girl and Green Girl.
