  • Frawge Mfrg. Co What more mayhem could possibly ensue in the drawing room of this mysterious manufacturing magnate? The portrait of the founder of Frawgge Mfrg Co hangs above the mantle, while the tea party looks to have gone horribly awry. Outside we are witness to no less than three different homicides. Edward Gorey is at his darkly mischievous best in this 1,000-piece puzzle, portraying a cloud of chaos and doom hanging over the impeccably manicured trappings of a vaguely Victorian society—decorated with frogs throughout.

    Artist and author Edward Gorey (American, 1925–2000) is beloved for the boundless imagination and sharp humor exhibited in his more than 100 published works. Gorey was also a set and costume designer for innumerable theater productions, including a staging of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, for which he won a Tony. He had a profound affection for literature, film, ballet, and animals. Cats and other odd creatures appear in many of his crosshatched illustrations. His humorously unsettling drawings of vaguely Victorian innocents facing unfortunate ends became familiar to a wide audience after appearing in the opening credits of the PBS television series Mystery! Gorey’s Cape Cod home, a veritable cabinet of curiosities, is now a museum celebrating his life and work.

    Pomegranate is proud to produce jigsaw puzzles with thoughtfully conceived, engagingly intricate, and aesthetically appealing images on a solid interlocking format. The sturdy construction combined with the wide image selection and vibrant color reproduction will delight everyone from experts to first-time puzzlers.

      This was a fantastic puzzle, I found the pieces to e of high quality and the design of the artwork provided numerous different patterns to focus on to help in solving the puzzle. Only a couple times were pieces placed incorrectly despite fitting together and looking pretty close to being right. Overall a great puzzle that I had enjoyed.
