The Cattle Market is the title of this hilarious 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle produced by the artist Jan van Haasteren. The puzzle image illustrates a cattle market where members of the public have gathered to buy and sell their cattle to each other. The market is well under way, but like all of Jan's illustrations, it's not quite going to plan, with the cattle running away, other cattle up trees and just causing the general public all sorts of problems. If this small taster of the illustrations in this puzzle sounds like your cup of tea, then don't miss out on the fun of piecing this puzzle together, because there are many more hilarious illustrations to be enjoyed.
This 1000-piece Jan van Haasteren jigsaw puzzle is the perfect starter for puzzlers who may have never pieced together a JVH jigsaw puzzle before - or it is a nice addition to loyal JVH fans' collections and a great travel jigsaw due to the small size and lower piece count.Â
Most of Jan's fans will immediately search for his trademark - the shark's fin - featured in every puzzle. But you can also look for Jan's other favourites - Saint Nicholas, The Hands, The Dentures and a self-portrait of Jan - that can be seen in nearly all of his puzzles. But if you have never puzzled a Jan van Haasteren before, then you can be sure to look out for these things.
The finished size of a 1000-piece puzzle measures 68 x 49cm (approximately).
The entire jigsaw puzzle has been produced using high-quality cardboard to ensure every jigsaw piece maintains its original shape during use and has a poster-like finish.
