GoAnywhere 160pc Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose DSC06102
Post Script November 2023
A jigsaw ideally suited to the theme of 'Light & Dark', and here on its own account, but also representing a hand-cut of the same image by Heather Prydderch and a 2000pc Grafika cardboard jigsaw, both not yet assembled.
The GoAnywhere concept also belongs to the theme for the January 2024 virtual meeting - Extremes - Jigsaws Great & Small. The 2000pc Grafika cardboard jigsaw would count as large for me too!

This little puzzle made it into my shortlist of six GoAnywhere puzzles because of the pretty corner details and because this is a favourite painting. The shaped edge certainly added to the difficulty for me. 160pc, measuring only 6.5 x 7.5in, with six whimsies, it is laser-cut from plywood. This is quite a contrast to Grafika's 2000pc version, completed recently by Piecefull.
This is John Singer Sargent's 'Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose' of 1885-6 which is in the collection of Tate Britain (and also featured in the recent Sargent exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery, jointly organised with the NY Met, 'Sargent Portraits of Artists and Friends').
The puzzle colours are a little on the green side - the original painting is very beautiful.
