My partner & I started this puzzle Monday evening and just finished it this afternoon. Talk about spending Sunday in the park with George! I saw the original painting, Un dimanche après-midi à l’Île de la Grande Jatte (A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte), hanging in the Art Institute of Chicago in 1993. It is huge, about 3:2 meters (about 10×7 feet), and I spent some time in the museum marveling at it. I’ve heard, seen, and sung Stephen Sondheim’s musical Sunday in the Park with George based on this painting, so it has added significance to me. This gave us something entertaining to do indoors on hot summer days during the coronavirus epidemic.
