Good Design Since 2008
One of the latest designs from our favorite puzzle company, Parkside Puzzles! This one is designed by Kristof Santy, a Belgian painter whose enigmatic work ranges from still-lifes to kaleidoscopic compositions. Rendered in bright and vivid palettes, his works possess a joyous and playful quality. The intricate compositions, characterized by their color-blocked flat planes, captivate the viewer and encourage them to embark on an entrancing journey into a stylized world.
This 1000 piece, 25" (63.5 cm) square puzzle, titled Fourchette (Fork) was inspired by the food illustrations depicted in Ons Kookboek, a vintage Flemish cookbook beloved by Kristof's mother and part of many Belgian kitchens. In this painting, the meal is laid out in a stylized, symmetrical arrangement which is typical of the food styling from that era, and adds a strong graphic sensibility to the work.
The difficulty level of this puzzle is low-medium. The large variety of colours and easily distinguishable components makes for a thoroughly enjoyable puzzle to assemble. *Note that there is a section of off-white pieces that is more challenging than the rest of the puzzle, however our varying piece shapes will help in that area.
