A wonderful 1000-piece puzzle from the Mysteries of the Rosary series. Puzzle lovers can collect them all. This one features dazzling color in the Presentation at the Temple. Mary's mantle glows in lapis lazuli blue, the rarest of hues imported from Afghanistan. The blue of St Joseph's robe is more muted, while Simeon's tunic seems tinged with brown. For all the delight for the eyes, this moment of joy is but a prelude to extended suffering. Jesus, sitting up in the arms of his mother, is removed from the infant being stabbed by one of Herod's soldiers. St Joseph was intentionally placed below the brutal attack, a reminder that he will soon have to flee with his family from the murderous rage of Herod. Enjoy a beautiful puzzle and quiet meditative time immersed in the joyful mysteries, or enjoy family time together centered in Christ and Mary. Makes a great gift for families.
