The Cathedrals of England
1,000-Piece Jigsaw
Brian CookPostscript summary
Brian Cook’s colourful gouache of Gloucester Cathedral was once reproduced on the jacket of Charles Fry’s 1934 book The Cathedrals of England. The illustration appears here as a 1,000-piece jigsaw that, when complete, measures 500x700mm.
Immerse yourself in the colourful world of Brian Cook's vision of England. This bright and brilliant vintage illustration of Gloucester cathedral featured on the dust jacket of the 1934 book The Cathedrals of England by Charles Fry.
Now available as a jigsaw puzzle for the first time to provide you with hours of mindful entertainment. The box includes 1000 jigsaw pieces in a sustainable paper bag. Once completed, the jigsaw puzzle measures 70 x 50 cm.
The book jackets that Brian Cook designed for B. T. Batsford through the 1930s and 1940s are much-loved, timeless pieces of illustrative art and highly collectable. The Landscape of England from the same popular heritage book series is also available as a jigsaw puzzle.
