This is a fine art, advanced cross-stitch design of the Three Sails (Las Tres Velas) painting by Joaquin Sorolla y Bastida. It was painted on the beach of El Cabañal during the summer of 1903 and is one of the most beautiful of his paintings of the fisherwomen of his native Valencia. It was purchased by a Berlin banker (Jewish), confiscated by the GDR (German Democratic Republic), stored in the basement of the Dresden Gemäldegalerie and forgotten for fifty years. Then the catastrophic flooding of the Elbe River in 2002 threatened much of the artwork stored in the lower levels of the Gemäldegalerie, and the crate in which this painting was stored came back to light. Sotheby's estimates it to sell for $3 to $4 million at auction.
