Description

Uncover the legendary roots of Rome as you build this stunning 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle and journey through Virgil’s greatest masterpiece, the Aeneid.

Build this jigsaw puzzle – without divine intervention – and join Aeneas, Trojan hero and son of Venus, as he escapes the fallen city of Troy. Follow as he battles mighty storms and ancient monsters, becomes entangled in a tragic love affair, and ultimately reaches Italy, where he is destined to found a great city.

This puzzle comes with a fold-out story guide by Daisy Dunn, who summarizes twenty key scenes from the Aeneid, bringing to life a rich cast of heroes, heroines and jealous deities.
