We purchased this puzzle because of all the beautiful fountains throughout the gardens of Versailles this one is by far our favorite. If you want the details, I found this info on Wikipedia:
The Apollo Fountain, which was constructed between 1668 and 1671, depicts the sun god driving his chariot to light the sky. The fountain forms a focal point in the garden and serves as a transitional element between the gardens of the Petit Parc and the Grand Canal
We have yet to be at the gardens when the fountain is actually running, but I have heard it is spectacular.
Anyways, the winner (La Gaganante) is my friend in Tualatin, OR: cegr! The puzzle will be in the mail as soon as we can bring ourselves to disassemble it.
My boys would like to do a puzzle contest like this every three months or so. Are you up to it?
I THINK that one of the Louis kings (14?) was called the Sun King.
