Garden Center, JvH (1000 pcs)

On the box of this 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle, a navy blue border frames the scene signed by Jan van Haasteren: a bustling garden center where a glass-roofed greenhouse stands next to tall palm trees and an aviary overflowing with green plants. Dozens of colorful characters cross paths between flower stalls and potted plants, while a line of customers waits at the checkout with full baskets and carts. As always with this illustrator, every corner of the image hides a small visual gag to spot.

This jigsaw puzzle belongs to Jan van Haasteren's Comic puzzle collection, known for its 100% recycled cardboard and its scenes packed with characters in the middle of the action. The box also includes a poster of the full image, handy for reference while assembling.

A well-known Dutch cartoonist, Jan van Haasteren has been drawing for this comic puzzle collection since the 1980s, packing every scene with hidden visual gags. He is also behind equally lively titles such as The Art Market and The Dutch Craft Market, always with that same knack for comic detail.
