Skating on the Frozen River Jigsaw Puzzle Game

The Large Plane Trees

Another art themed puzzle is here. Also known as the "Road Menders at Saint-Remy", the painting that today's puzzle is based on depicts roadwork taking place underneath some large plane trees on a autumn day. In actuality, "The Large Pane Trees" (the one featured in this puzzle) and the "Road Menders of Saint-Remy" are two different paintings and are sometimes confused as one. Although similar, Van Gogh painted this one first on a red and white checkered table cloth and later painted it again on an actual canvas.

George Washington at the Battle of Princeton

The official portrait of George Washington, that this puzzle is based on, was painted in 1779 Charles Willson Peale to commemorate the victories of the Continental army at Trenton and Princeton, New Jersey. This battle took place during the American Revolutionary War, near Princeton, New Jersey on January 3, 1777. American historians often consider the Battle of Princeton a great victory because of the subsequent loss of control of most of New Jersey by the Crown forces. The Continental Army was led General George Washington.

Just Dessert

This new puzzle is base on, William Michael Harnett's 1891 oil on canvas painting with the same name. The painting depicts a variety of foodstuffs arranged on a marble surface. We can see half a coconut, a box of Smyrna figs, a bottle of Maraschino liqueur, a copper pitcher on one side of the table, a pewter tankard on the other side, a ginger jar and some white and red grapes.

First Steps, after Millet

This puzzle is based on Vincent van Gogh's painting called "First Steps, after Millet". While a patient at the asylum in Saint-Remy, Van Gogh painted twenty-one copies after Millet, an artist he greatly admired. The painting depicts a fenced-in garden behind a house and two parents encouraging their child to walk for the first time.

Squire Jack Porter

Today's puzzle is based on Frank Blackwell Mayer's 1858 oil on paperboard painting called Independence (Squire Jack Porter). The painting depicts Jack Porter, a veteran of the War of 1812. "Squire Jack" was a self-sufficient landholder and businessman and embodied the independent spirit that had become an American ideal in the 1850s.

Roses from The Temple of Flora

This puzzle is based on a mezzotint printed in colors by Robert John Thornton featuring a bunch of roses within which two thrushes are nesting, in the background a temple with a statue. If you didn't know, mezzotint is a printmaking process of the intaglio family, technically a drypoint method. This technique can achieve a high level of quality and richness in the print.

The Garden at Petit Gennevilliers

Today's puzzle is base on an oil on canvas painting by Gustave Caillebotte. Caillebotte was an avid gardener and designed the garden featured in this beautiful painting on his property in Petit Gennevilliers. He painted several scenes of his garden.

Still Life with Apples and Pitcher

Today's puzzle is based on Camille Pissaro's 1872 impressionist oil on canvas painting "Still Life with Apples and Pitcher". Pissarro was a Danish-French Impressionist and Neo-Impressionist painter born on the island of St Thomas. He is the only artist to have shown his work at all eight Paris Impressionist exhibitions, from 1874 to 1886.

Hummingbird and Passionflowers

Today's puzzle is based on a painting by Martin Johnson Heade. The American artist was fascinated with hummingbirds and painted them in several of his works. The particular species of the hummingbird represented in this painting is the black-eared fairy. It lives in the same area of the Amazon basin where the passionflower grows.

Flower Garden and Bungalow

This new colorful puzzle is based on Winslow Homer's 1899 painting called "Flower Garden and Bungalow, Bermuda". This watercolor painting was made during Winslow's many winter visits to tropical locations. The painting depicts a bungalow surrounded by a beautiful flower garden in Bermuda.

Still Life with Flowers and Fruit

Today's art themed puzzle is based on the 1866 "Still Life with Flowers and Fruit" painting by Henri Fantin-Latour. The painting is one of four still lifes commissioned from the artist by Michael Spartali (a Greek businessman and diplomat). In addition to his realistic paintings, like the one in this puzzle, Fantin-Latour created imaginative lithographs inspired by the music of some of the great classical composers.

Bowl Of Peaches and Grapes

Today's puzzle is based on an oil on wood painting from 1825 by the American artist John A. Woodside. The painting called "Still Life: Peaches and Grapes", depicts a bowl of peaches and some white and black grapes on a table. You can also see a half eaten peach and a pocket knife in the foreground of the painting.
