Genest Le Colimacon Two Mazes From One Continuous Cut Vase of Flowers by Jan Brueghel 1
It was wonderful to see our continental members returning to the house party after a long absence caused by the pandemic. Genest once more had a table with examples of his work and had also provided the hand-cut stack of three identical 324pc jigsaws for the team speed competition (Mucha advert). I bought one of these three, Rob has the second and the third has become a library jigsaw. Another jigsaw on display was a hand painted 191pc tray-jigsaw of a herring gull.
On display he had two experimental jigsaws - his first in the technique of continuous cutting.
This one had been left at the two interlocking maze stage. I was so overwhelmed with this jigsaw (flower still life, by Jan Brueghel, not Renoir) that I forgot to even photograph it! Genest provided these photos and said that it took immense concentration to cut that way, which was very tiring.
The other one had been fully dissected, with the rear mazes painted in complementary colours (Modigliani portrait of a young boy, 244pc.
I feel immensely privileged to be able to buy and commission jigsaws from our BCD cutters. Genest also brought many commissions for lucky BCD members, including myself, Penbleth, Frances & Pete.
