12000, Ravensburger, The Temptation of Saint Anthony

Ravensburger manufactured this extraordinary jigsaw puzzle in 1983. It is very difficult to find today. The title is The Temptation of Saint Anthony, by Hieronymus Bosch.

This puzzle was the first one with 12000 pieces, and the largest fine art jigsaw puzzle available for a long time. In fact, Ravensburger has not published a larger fine art puzzle after this one.

The puzzle is like NEW, in its original FACTORY SEAL. The box is in very good condition, with some shelf wear, and a couple of tears in the seal, as you can see in the photographs.

Art Stones has a 2000 piece version with this same topic, and there is another 2000 piece version by Ricordi.
