Description
Orient Express is a 1000-piece nostalgic jigsaw puzzle journey through a dreamlike collage landscape of European railways, from celebrated collage artist Maria Rivans.
Winding through the heart of the continent, you’ll be delighted by a host of cosmopolitan sights and spectacular landscapes, with intriguing prewar imagery conjuring up the age of steam. The collage includes hundreds of images, featuring all the stops on the historic Orient Express routes: London, Calais, Paris, Strasbourg, Zurich, Lausanne, Simplon Tunnel, Milan, Venice, Trieste, Ljubljana, Zagreb, Innsbruck, Munich, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Sofia, Bucharest, Varna, Istanbul, Athens, Berlin, and more.
Drawing heavily on the prewar and fin de siècle, this puzzle is both a mysterious, inviting view of Europe and a gorgeous celebration of the age of steam—packaged in an environmentally friendly, plastic-free box.
