‘The Chariot Race’ jigsaw puzzle by Alexander von Wagner, manufactured by Pomegranate. Produced for the Vienna International Exposition of 1873, von Wagner created Roman chariots drawn by horses that seem to plunge out of the canvas and into our laps. From the flurry of shocked and excited gestures among the spectators to the gleaming medallions on the horses’ harnesses, the artist crafted a climactic moment with virtuosic precision. |
