Educa manufactured this jigsaw puzzle in 1998 and it is now very hard to find. The title is The Birth of Venus, by Sandro Botticelli. It is an interesting edition because the puzzle includes a very nice burgundy bottom frame with the words Nascita di Venere. Those words are the original Italian title of the painting.
The puzzle is INCOMPLETE (3998 pieces; 2 missing pieces). The pieces are in excellent condition. The box is in very good condition, with a tear on a corner.
There is another 4000 piece version of this puzzle by Clementoni. Both of them are exceptional puzzles.
