Genest Le Colimacon 1576pc Secret Mystery Group Project 8hrs Stage 1 DSC07453

Genest stack cut three puzzles for a group project - this is my first progress report. Bob finished in August and Mike in late December. It took me about two and a half hours to lay out the pieces and this is after 8hrs of assembly work.

 

The 1576pc puzzle will measure 60 x 46.5cm when complete. When I started all I knew about the image was that it was a period painting and religious - but not Bosch or the Temptation of St Anthony. Spreading the pieces out I thought there was only one figure, a woman, and possibly a dragon, plus lots of wooden frame. I remember getting a little panicky - what have I done - about 20minutes in!

 

Working through the most colourful tray I spotted another face - so a two-person image, probably an Annunciation. I also spotted an old man (who turned out to be God in the sky - instead of the usual Dove representing the Holy Spirit). There is also a small woman and a dog. Rather worryingly I appear to have five hands!
