Footbridge at Lac d'Annecy (1000pcs)

An emerald-green wooden archway, trimmed with delicate carved woodwork, frames a wooden footbridge that stretches gently over the calm waters of Lac d'Annecy, in France's Haute-Savoie region. In the distance, the snow-capped peaks of the Alps stand out against a sky painted in shades of pink, mauve and gold, as if caught at sunrise or sunset. Soft light reflects on the water, creating a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to linger. This 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle invites you to piece together, one part at a time, this invitation to travel and quiet contemplation.

This jigsaw puzzle is part of the Beautiful Walkways collection, a series of six 1000-piece puzzles that showcase some of the world's most photogenic paths, staircases and footbridges. Lac d'Annecy, located in Haute-Savoie, is well known for the remarkable clarity of its waters, a feature that draws photographers and travellers from around the world.

The photograph is by Stefan Hefele, a German landscape and architecture photographer active since 2010, known for capturing light in natural settings around the globe, from the tropics to icy landscapes. His collaboration with publisher Ravensburger has resulted in several jigsaw puzzles that showcase spectacular panoramas.
