Description

This is a very rare puzzle published by the Banco Nacional Ultramarino, with the occasion of the Commemoration of the Portuguese Discoveries. It represents the tapestry Arrival of Vasco da Gama in Calicut. However, the title in the box is The Arrival of Vasco da Gama in Lisbon. That is an unforgivable mistake, considering that the puzzle is a commemoration of important Portuguese feats.

There is another 1000 piece version of this puzzle by Art Stones. However, Ricordi’s edition, measuring 90 x 30 cm., distorts the original tapestry, which measures 7.70 x 4 m. This copy is faithful to the original. The puzzle measures 72 x 50 cm. The slight disparity is due to the border of the puzzle, not to the proportions of the image itself.

The puzzle is NEW, with its original FACTORY SEAL.
