Always an Interesting Moment
Thought to be of c1920's-1930's manufacture, this non-interlocking plywood jigsaw puzzle was one of a collection owned and cut by the Atkinson family. The fabulous artwork is of unknown origin and unsigned. The painting features a motor launch carrying the name RMSP Romsdal, which I have not been able to identify. My thoughts are that it is most likely the artist's own addition to the setting for the scene, with cruise ship passengers alighting their motor launch at a port in Romsdal Fjord, Norway.
Interestingly RMSP Arcadian records Aandalsnaes, Romsdal Fjord as one of the stops on its Cruise No. 2 to ‘The Norwegian Fjords’ in June 1913 and the ship's launch was of very similar construction to that shown in the puzzle image.
The puzzle was challenging to the last piece and shows significant signs of historical repair work. A much loved puzzle! The piece count recorded on the box is also somewhat inaccurate, with an actual count of 581.
