Tiger III

Stunning non-interlocking plywood jigsaw puzzle cut by Karsten Tomkins in 2011 and featuring a dazzling painting © C.R. Lassen.
This 435 piece puzzle features an irregular edge and superb colour line-cutting throughout, leading to a very challenging task of assembly.
With a BCD event looming in Bourton-on-the Water in June 2024, carrying a theme of "Bold, Bright and Colourful", this seemed the perfect example to take along to display as part of the regular "Show and Tell" feature. Alas, my efforts to complete it in time were thwarted by the cutter's sheer brilliance. Having spent some five hours only half completing it at home, I took it along to the meeting with grand ideas of finishing it on the day, but we still came up short!! In the end, it returned home for a further four hours of concerted effort. Job done!! Hope you enjoy the picture as much as I enjoyed the challenge.
