This is another very rare old puzzle by Jumbo. It represents the painting Sham Fight on the River Y, by Abraham Storck. In the 17th century such sham fights took place on the River Y as amusement for distinguished guests of the city of Amsterdam. This particular painting shows a sham fight held in 1697 to welcome Peter the Great of Russia. The Russian frigate partaking in the show has a white-blue-red flag with a crowned eagle. You can admire the original painting at the National Maritime Museum, in Amsterdam.
The puzzle is like NEW, with the pieces still SEALED in the original bag. The box is in excellent condition, with just some tape marks on the back side.
Ravensburger published in 1974 a 1500 piece version of The Four Days’ Battle, also by Abraham Storck.
