History
This 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle features a remarkable reproduction of a millefleur tapestry named “Flora.” In Roman mythology, Flora was a goddess of flowers and the springtime. The mediaeval style tapestry was woven in 1885, Sir Edward Burne-Jones drew the woman in the tapestry, and William Morris created the background of swirling acanthus leaves, birds, and wild hares.
A passage from a poem by William Morris is written on scrolls in the puzzle. It reads:
I am the handmaid of the earth
I broider fair her glorious gown
And deck her on her days of mirth
With many a garland of renown.And while Earth’s little ones are fain
And play about the Mother’s hem
I scatter every gift I gain
From sun and wind to gladden them.
