puzzles from Flame Tree, featuring powerful and popular works of
art. This new jigsaw will satisfy your need for a challenge, with
the beautiful John James Audubon: 'A Pair of Magpie Jays' from The
Birds of America. This 500-piece jigsaw is intended for adults and
children over 13 years. Not suitable for children under 3 years due
to small parts. Finished Jigsaw size 490 x 360mm/19.3 x 14.2 ins.
Includes an A4 poster for reference. The ornithologist John James
Audubon is best remembered for his influential book The Birds of
America, which included over 400 beautiful artworks. This image was
a collage created by Lady Hertford, who owned Temple Newsam House
in Leeds, England. Lady Hertford cut the images from Audubon's book
and applied them to the hand-painted Chinese wallpaper in her
drawing room. The result was a stunning room filled with a mixture
of Audubon's birds and the original Asian garden birds that
featured on the wallpaper. The two birds on the left here are
Audubon's depictions of Columbia Jays, now known as Black-throated
Magpie Jays.
