Colosseum puzzle, amphitheatre in Rome - 1000 pieces

Description

The box holds one 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle. The image shows the Colosseum in Rome from the outside: the tiers of arches one above the other, the partly fallen outer ring, and a low sun breaking through the opening on the left and warming the stone.

The Colosseum is puzzling for anyone who likes repetition. The arches closely resemble one another, so you go mainly by small differences in light and shadow; the blue sky around it is then a quiet stretch to lay in between times.

What you get is a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle. The box carries the series name Landmarks Collection and the Puzzle Special Edition seal.

A recognisable gift for anyone who has visited Rome or still wants to go, and for puzzlers who are fond of architecture.
