Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh 1000-Piece Puzzle

I love the Eurographics 1000 piece Fine Art range and I have now bought 5, completed 3 and I'm working on this one. I love the irregularly shaped pieces, the quality and thickness of the cardboard is perfect. The colour matching of the box print and the jigsaw print is excellent and it needs to be as these puzzles are hard! This Van Gogh Starry night is the most enjoyable jigsaw I have ever done. It is just the right level of difficulty for me. His broad, thick paint application means that each piece can be identified by careful study of the box picture but mostly not immediately. The completed size of these is also perfect for me in that I can complete it from a sitting position. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a reasonably challenging jigsaw.I have also completed The Lady of Shallot by Waterhouse, The Tree of Life by Klimt and Frida Kahlo's Self Portrait. The Lady of Shallot was too difficult for me to be properly enjoyable as there is a lot of indistinct brown and black. The Tree of Life was maddening because of all the similar spirals but I got there and the artwork is so beautiful that helped. Kahlo's Portrait was the easiest I have done but the portrait layout meant it was hard to reach the top pieces. I imagine I will work my way through more of the series. I have Van Gogh's Almond Blossom in waiting.

Difficulty is really high, but the picture is really nice and the colors might be true to the original (no distorsion). Rewarding.

Good quality jigsaw, not an easy one by any means but very enjoyable. Makes you appreciate Van Goghs brushwork!

Great puzzle with unique piece shapes. Bought for housemates and it them ages. A couple of the pieces were damaged on opening.

It's great! The pieces have all different shapes and sizes and the cut is really good. If you're passionate about puzzles, you'll love this.

The out look of the product is good. However, if there exist some kind of hint on the back side of each piece would make the product even better.

Gave this to my mum and she hates it. 10/10

I had the smartcut (random shapes) version of this puzzle, which may have made it a bit trickier, but either way this is a difficult puzzle.The quality of Eurographics is really good, and pieces fit well together, once you have worked out what kind of shape you are looking for to go into a space.I love doing these kind of art puzzles as it gives an opportunity to look really closely at the brushstrokes making up a picture, and I find a greater appreciation of the final image once I've managed to complete it too!
