New York Puzzle Company – New Yorker City Living – 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle
$57.48
See what our customer has to say “The “New Yorker” cover of June 25, 2018, plays with an inside-out theme in “City Living,” one of the many outstanding covers recreated as a puzzle by the New York Puzzle Company. It features a day-in-the-life of tenants of five apartments in a city high-rise captured through their living room picture window and adjacent balcony. At first glance, it’s a diorama of domestic and community bliss, but closer inspection reveals the conflicts that arise when lives intersect in such close quarters. The image suggests that there’s a thin line between our public and private lives. The stacked, vertical orientation magnifies the congestion of shared living spaces. At 500 pieces, this puzzle is a good choice for either younger kids or as a family project for puzzlers with different skill levels. A rarity in mainstream puzzles is found here: people of color are seamlessly built into the overall theme. Puzzles that tell stories or spur conversations – basically, puzzles that draw you into and beyond their frame – are our favorite to build. If that’s your style, too, this puzzle is a winner.”
