Nina Surel, The Mirror of Venus

Puzzlewood, 523 pieces.  Incredibly elaborate with multiple thicknesses of wood to frame the piece and highlight elements in it, which contributed to the difficulty (as did a lot of color line cutting).  I'm not super enamored of the picture itself, but I can't deny what a fantastic puzzle it made.  5/5

Update: complete and partially complete picture removed because artist objected; the remaining pictures focus on the cut.
