Capture the humor and intensity of Norman Rockwell’s Retribution in this full-coverage cross stitch pattern. Originally featured on the cover of The Country Gentleman magazine in 1920, Retribution is the second piece in a two-part series. In this scene, Rockwell humorously portrays two young boys facing the uncomfortable consequences of their earlier actions after smoking—a moment of regret and discomfort. The first piece in this series, But Wait 'til Next Week (Boys Smoking), shows the boys’ initial misadventure and is also available as a cross stitch pattern to complete the set. Known for his vivid storytelling, Rockwell brings this relatable moment to life in a beautifully detailed cross stitch design, perfect for art lovers and stitchers alike.
Featuring both regular and large print charts, this pattern includes easy-to-follow instructions, making it perfect for stitchers of all skill levels.
