This new puzzle is based on an oil on panel painting by James Ward (1769– 17 November 1859) - a painter, particularly of animals, and an engraver. James Ward was one of the outstanding artists of the day, his singular style and great skill set him above most of his contemporaries, markedly influencing the growth of British art. He was regarded as one of the great animal painters of his time. From 1810 or so, Ward started to paint horses within landscapes; slightly later, he turned to very large-scale landscapes.

Market Scene

This new online jigsaw puzzle is based on a painting by Pieter Aertsen. Pieter Aertsen (1508–3 June 1575), called Lange Pier ("Tall Pete") because of his height, was a Dutch painter in the style of Northern Mannerism, who invented the monumental genre scene combining still life and genre painting, and very often also including a biblical scene in the background. In this puzzle we can see a market as seen by Pieter Aertsen in the 1500s.

The Railway

The Railway, widely known as The Gare Saint-Lazare, is an 1873 painting by Edouard Manet. The setting is the urban landscape of Paris in the late nineteenth century. Using his favorite model in his last painting of her, a fellow painter, Victorine Meurent, also the model for Olympia and the Luncheon on the Grass, sits before an iron fence holding a sleeping puppy and an open book in her lap. Next to her is a little girl with her back to the painter, who watches a train pass beneath them.

The Meeting of David and Abigail

Based on the painting by Peter Paul Rubens(Flemish, 1577 - 1640) with thee same name, the picture featured in this art themed puzzle depicts the meeting of Abigail and David. Nabal of Carmel, Abigail's husband, had refused to pay for the protection that David had provided for his shepherds. Angered, David set off to avenge this misdeed with a large group of soldiers. Seeking his forgiveness, Abigail, is shown kneeling in this painting by Rubens. If you don't know the entire biblical scene the story ends with Nabal's dying from a stroke after learning of the disaster his wife helped to avert. Impressed with Abigail David then proposed marriage. If you didn't know, in the biblical narrative, David is a young shepherd who first gains fame as a musician(the Book of Samuel calls David a skillful harp player and "the sweet psalmist of Israel) and later by killing Goliath; after Saul (the king)is killed in battle David is anointed as King.
