From the box:
"Anyone for a good old-fashioned game of knucklebones or hoop rolling? You'll find these and over eighty other children's pastimes in the enchanting 'Children's Games' by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. The Flemish master painter is known for artworks depicting a wide range of human behaviors [sic] in scenes of peasant life. Childhood during the mid-1500s involved far more than fun and games, and art historians have long pondered Bruegel's purpose in creating this compendium of more than two hundred children at play. Revisit childhood - sixteenth century style - with this amazingly detailed 2000-piece jigsaw puzzle."

Well, it took us long enough, but here it is: One of Pomegranate's first three forays into 2K puzzles. The best by far of the three subjects on offer, but a bad choice for the dark and gloomy days of winter! Excellent Pomegranate quality as always, but of course that didn't stop me moaning constantly as we progressed... 'there's a piece missing' is my usual mantra! This is one of the new jigsaws we treated ourselves to over the Christmas period, and there are still one or two left to assemble...
