Product Description

The Starry Night by Dutch post-impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh is the most renowned achievement of his illustrious and remarkably short career. In the time span of only 8 years (1880-1890), van Gogh produced more than 2000 drawings and paintings. Today, scholars and art enthusiasts alike continue to analyze, debate, and ponder the tormented spirit of this eccentric genius and the depiction of the village of Saint-Remy. Completed puzzle measures 38x26. Contains Bonus Poster inside.

1.0 out of 5 stars not a good reproduction, September 8, 2011

This puzzle cuts off four stars from the top of the painting, nips the top of the building and chops off the top of the sun. Go to Wikipedia to see a depiction of the original painting. If you want a good Starry Night Puzzle then buy Clementoni which exactly replicates the Van Gogh painting or the 1000 piece puzzle by Eurographics, which crowds the stars a bit, but is far, far better than this Buffalo Games mess.

There's no doubt that this puzzle is going to take a while, but that's the fun of it, right? It's big, taking up our entire dining room table before it's assembled, so you'll need to have a lot of room available. But it's probably the highest quality puzzle I've seen, with no bent pieces and no "puzzle dust" at the bottom of the box. My only complaint - I could have saved money if I'd shopped around. [...]

UPDATE: Okay, I should've waited to add my review. The other reviewer is right - all of the pieces look alike! It's not much fun if you can't make noticeable progress. This is a beautiful painting, but a terrible puzzle.

This is a challenging puzzle, but that's the fun in it. It certainly isn't one you would finish in a week, but I was looking for something that would challenge me for awhile but still be "do-able" and entertaining. This is exactly that. It's also a great way to study the painting and get a feel for how van Gogh created it. I liked the painting before I started the puzzle, but I appreciate it much more now.
