Content Details
Contains one new puzzle box for Masters of Puzzle. The UHD image captures the original painting in great detail which in turn allows for very detailed and diverse puzzle tiles. The similarity of the colors and the lush vegetation in many parts of the image will represent a challenge. The mountains, depending on the number of puzzle tiles, might also prove difficult to assemble. This puzzle box will represent medium to high challenge for most puzzle builders.* Note: The painting used in this DLC is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or less.
