Description: 

Par time: 9:25.  33 figure pieces and more color line cutting than most Par puzzles.  Very challenging.  Artist is Eden Fleming.  When she first exhibited her work, at the Hanover Gallery, London in 1949, Eden Fleming adopted the pseudonym E. Box. She painted highly colored, stylized animals and figures, sometimes with Christian significance, in exotic landscapes. The catalog for her 1981 retrospective at David Carritt Ltd in London was prefaced by Howard Hodgkin, who wrote that Box's work was 'painted with the direct one to one representation that we find in Persian and Indian miniature painting'. Roy Strong, in a 1978 article for Vogue magazine, identified the influence of icons and the work of the Douanier Rousseau in her paintings.  Wikipedia
