The abbey of Mont Saint-Michel stands on this 1000 piece puzzle against a sky full of orange and pink cloud, while the whole rock is mirrored in the wet sand at its foot. The windows of the little town and the rampart are already lit, and the water below lies almost still.
The image belongs to Clementoni's High Quality Collection, and the box carries the oval Travel label: the series of travel destinations. The sky and the reflection are the patient work, because that is where the colours run slowly into one another; the abbey itself sorts faster.
Finished, the puzzle measures 70 x 50 cm and it is made in Italy. A size that fits a standard 70 by 50 frame.
Good for anyone who has seen the bay of Mont Saint-Michel for themselves, or for someone who likes to start on a landscape with a lot of sky.
