Charley Harper (American, 1922–2007)
Tree of Life, 1961

Our planet has given birth to the cuttlefish, the mandrill, and the oak. Over billions of years, a great diversity of life has filled our oceans, skies, forests, and grasslands.  To convey his teeming conception of the tree of life, Charley Harper (American, 1922–2007) collected 102 plants and animals, including even a bacterium, a fungus, and that happy inhabitant of a tree—a fine golden pear.

Thoughtfully conceived and engagingly intricate, this 500-piece jigsaw puzzles combine superb color reproduction, stunning and unusual images, and sturdy construction to delight generations of novice and veteran puzzleworkers.
