Trakai Island Castle - Lithuania --- Jigsaw Puzzle
Beautiful Trakai Castle, in Lithuania, is situated on an island in Lake Galve. The castle served as the seat of power for the Grand Duchy of Lithuania during the reign of Vytautas the Great (1350-1430). By 1400, about the time Trakai Castle was built, the Teutonic Knights had occupied Lithuania for almost 100 years, in their efforts to convert the last pagan nation of Europe. The Lithuanians were a people of the land, sky, and myth. They did not want to become Christians! Vytautas and King Jogaila led the combined armies of Lithuania and Poland to a decisive victory over the Teutonic Knights (Crusaders) at the famous Battle of Grunwald in 1410. Subsequent Lithuanian leaders moved the capital to nearby Vilnius. An invasion by Russian Cossacks destroyed Trakai Castle in 1655. Its reconstruction was completed in 1987. Today, Lithuanian heritage people celebrate many rich traditions, thanks to the blending of their pagan and Christian history, myths, and culture.

I got this image in 110 pieces as I cannot commit to large puzzles. This one took me about an hour and was fairly easy. Perhaps 252 pieces would have better suited me for a little more complexity. This is not my favourite sugar skull as I prefer more girly colours like hot pink, reds and purples but I enjoyed doing this one. There is a lot of detail in the image and it was interesting to do. I don't think I will buy the larger puzzle count just because there are other sugar skull images that I much prefer.
Again very good quality puzzle and durable storage box that fits very well on small bookcase. The image was well positioned on this one so who ever printed this one got it pretty bang on.

I bought this image in 110 pieces because I like puzzles I can complete in a few hours. This one took me about 1.5 hours. It was surprisingly challenging in that in the nebular section of the image the pieces were difficult to orientate. It was difficult to gauge which pieces were right without trying them and sometimes I thought certain pieces wouldn't fit and they did. It must be the way the image is made up that it tricks the eye. I definitely found it harder than I thought it would be so yes it's a challenge.
As always very good quality puzzle in a very durable box that stores really well on my small bookcase. The image was well orientated on the puzzle so I would say the printer got this one pretty bang on. Very good quality image.
