Piece together a piece of scientific history with this meticulously crafted jigsaw puzzle. Featuring the title page of Isaac Newton's groundbreaking work, Opticks, this puzzle offers both a challenging and rewarding experience.

This isn't just any title page; it's a reproduction from the copy personally gifted by Newton to his friend and colleague, Edmund Halley. Look closely, and you'll find two inscriptions in Latin, penned by Halley himself. 'Ex dono doctissimi Authoris' which translates to 'from the gift of the most learned author,' and 'Luceo' meaning 'I shine' or 'I become light'. These inscriptions are a direct link to the intellectual exchange of Newton's time.

Available in either 500 or 1000-piece options, our premium-quality puzzle comes in a rigid black box adorned with the image on the front. Whether you're a seasoned puzzle enthusiast or a science aficionado, this puzzle is an engaging way to explore the intersection of art and science.

Perfect as a thoughtful gift or a personal challenge, bring a touch of Newton’s genius to your home. Each piece is a step closer to uncovering a fascinating moment in scientific history.
