The essence of folk art is to tell a story about the people, the culture, and their history in a unique way. Eric has been painting folk art for over 20 years, visiting famous cities like Paris, London, Sydney, Venice, and Bermuda. But since the world is much bigger, see what other cities you recognize in the painting that only you might know like, Whistler, Bristol, and Peggy’s Cove. Become a traveler and experience the stories only through Eric’s folk art in the Best of the World.

Nice puzzle

Nice challenge, however the poster would have been much more helpful if it was just a little larger. Due to the extremely small print, ended up with headaches after a while. Lol.

The "CROWN JEWEL" of Dowdle's puzzles

I am totally dazzled by "Las Vegas Strip", but I think "Best of the World" is still the best. The design..the layering of maps, tiny figures, buildings, famous sites, natural icons, etc etc is ASTOUNDING; it's almost impossible to imagine how this was actually done. CAUTION-- you really need to take your time with this one (I own both 500 and 1,000-piece versions). But as complicated and detailed as it is, EVERY PIECE is like a miniature, jewel...a MOSAIC piece that fits together like a work of precious art (this is true of all of Dowdle's best puzzles, including Best of Florida, EXODUS (!), etc).

I have only one personal reservation about one of the figures depicted outside of the White House, whom I feel does not merit inclusion in this great work. But I'll ignore it, since the totality of this work of art is so stunning. LR

1000 PC PUZZLE? I THOUGHT IT WAS 2000

I work a Dowdle puzzle every January to help me soothe my Christmas nerves. Started this habit when they came in the box that looked like a suitcase. I've loved every one of them but this one almost ate my lunch...remember I said almost because I did work it and felt very accomplished when I put in the last piece.
