Was looking for a puzzle that would take me some time and this one certainly filled the bill!
I wouldn't exactly say that this puzzle is beautiful. I would call it "polyester pretty" - it comes with a very high kitsch rating. Pomegranate is known for making beautiful puzzles (among other high end, aesthetically pleasing, printed materials), and this is a beautifully made puzzle.
Edward Gorey is genuinely fun; he's witty, his line work is unique, and his subject matter varies widely. 1000 piece puzzles tend to be finished quickly in my space, so I buy them carefully (or not at all). Thankfully, the sly usage of tonal variation, repetition, and varied line weight, make for a whimsically funny and challenging little puzzle.
If you don't feel like whipping out the big table, but don't want to fly through a smaller puzzle, give this one a try.
