When researching the source of this image we went down a bit of an interesting research project. The painter, Ersson, is Swedish and this folk art painting is a style called Kurbits, often associated with floral and other distinctive features. It was pretty interesting and worth reading more about if you are unfamiliar with it. This Par is in so-so shape and priced accordingly. What is interesting is the colors are muted, possibly due to aging of the paper, but it actually made for a pretty fun puzzle once we got into it as you needed to pay close attention to the patterns and other clues more than the colors.
Artist: Jufwas Anders Ersson (1757-1834)
Fair condition. Looks to be discolored, a number of knobs have chips (probably about 10) and a couple other pieces with some bigger chips. Some work edges on pieces and a couple pieces look stained. (It sounds worse that it is, we didn’t notice too many of these issues when working on it, please look at pictures closely.) Tissue is partly replaced.

How We Rate the Condition of Puzzles
We do our best to describe the condition of the puzzles. It is a little challenging as everyone has their own standards. We suggest you rely on the closeup photos and feel free to ask questions if you have any. That being said, generally this is what our various ratings mean:
Excellent β These puzzles are in top condition for a pre-owned puzzle that has been assembled before. There might be a very slight amount of wear on a small number of pieces, but otherwise in great shape.
Very Good β Puzzles in this category have probably only been done a few times and show almost no signs of wear. Maybe a small number of pieces that stand out as having a little uplifting or other issues.
Fair β A puzzle in this condition has been probably done a good number of times.. It will show signs of wear which could include things like chips, parts of the paper layer missing or other condition problems. Any issues will be shared in the notes for the listing in addition to the puzzle's photos.
Poor β In need of major restoration, may be missing pieces, lots of chipped pieces or other condition issues noted in the description.
We do take into consideration the condition of the boxes, but most will have at least a tiny amount of wear since when they are shipped the corners can get worn down. Anything significant will be noted in the description.
