This is the second time I have assembled this image. The first time it was named Rue L’Amour , was made by Cobble Hill, and was 500 pieces. The assembly was lovely both times, but I think I preferred the Cobble Hill only because it had more pieces and was a little more of a challenge.
They were both excellent quality puzzles. FX Schmid has (mostly) Ravensburger quality with a wonderful fit and beautiful image reproduction. I think this is the first 300 piece from this brand that I’ve worked, and it was quite nice. There was the slightest bit of warping on the pieces, but I live in the land of humidity so it’s difficult to say whether or not that played any part in it.
John O’Brien really captures the dreamy quality of wedding gowns in a bridal shop in this image, it’s just beautiful.

I like these Paris-style street scenes!

Beautiful image but I would probably want it in a 1000 piece count.

It is beautiful, and I agree in would be better in a higher count; although with the brush strokes I think it would be quite a challenge as a 1000 piece. I preferred the 500 piece Cobble Hill version I assembled a few years ago. But then again, you’re the JVH master so this image at 1000 pieces would be a walk in the park for you! (Or should I say a stroll down a Paris street?) 🙂
