Hooray!
My friend's Mum had a jigsaw which presented one picture on a box but the puzzle was a reverse of the image (so a family photo would be on the cover but you had to do a back view). Now that was tough!

I have a personal rule that I can't consult the cover picture while I'm assembling the puzzle.

I think it's the hardest I've ever done.
It's gorgeous...

And think of all that time you used up when you could have been sitting fretting or worrying!

It's a design by the Swiss artist Escher. His drawings convert into really mean jigsaws.

Thank you.
I love Escher. I've done a number of puzzles based on his work, but this was definitely the hardest.

That's the small explorer.
She stopped by afterwards to admire.

Of course.

I've got a cupboard full of them and am steadily working through them.
There's one I've started twice and each time it's defeated me.
