Golden Hour: a few minutes before the sun disappears

There is that moment, at the end of a summer day, when everything changes without really changing. The light becomes warmer, the colors softer, and the shadows lengthen. It is this interlude that Elsa Saunier captures in Golden Hour.

Released as a 1000-piece puzzle by Piece & Love, her illustration plays with colors and contrasts to gradually reconstruct that long summer evening atmosphere that one would gladly make last a little longer.

With a stated difficulty level of 7/10, Golden Hour offers a real challenge without becoming discouraging. Like the other puzzles made in France selected at Kiplé, it is produced in France using 100% recycled FSC-certified cardboard, plastic-free.

Creating a moment frozen in time

‘Golden Hour’ is not an illustration that relies on a multitude of characters or small objects to spot. Here, it is primarily the light, the colours and their variations that shape the image.

This is also what makes the jigsaw so enjoyable — and part of the challenge —: observing the nuances, distinguishing between the different areas, and then gradually seeing the atmosphere imagined by Elsa Saunier come to life.

Piece & Love rates Golden Hour at 7/10 for difficulty: challenging enough to keep you occupied for a few enjoyable evenings, with a print of the image included in the box for those who prefer to have a model to follow.

Elsa Saunier’s gentle and poetic world

Golden Hour is the work of Elsa Saunier, a French illustrator and graphic designer. Piece & Love says it was captivated by her gentle, poetic world, brought to life by colours that invite calm and a sense of escape.

This is precisely what works so well here: once the 1,000 pieces have been put together, Golden Hour looks more like a contemporary illustration than a traditional jigsaw puzzle.

If you enjoy those jigsaw puzzles that you choose as much for the picture as for the pleasure of putting them together, Marion Lagarde’s Nice is Nice also explores this boundary between jigsaw puzzles and illustration, this time under the sun of the Côte d’Azur.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who illustrated the ‘Golden Hour’ jigsaw puzzle?
Golden Hour is illustrated by Elsa Saunier, a French illustrator and graphic designer. Piece & Love describes her work as a gentle, poetic world, characterised in particular by colours that invite calm and a sense of escape.
Why is this jigsaw puzzle called ‘Golden Hour’?
The ‘golden hour’ refers to that time around sunrise or sunset when the light takes on a particularly warm, golden hue. ‘Golden Hour’ draws inspiration from this atmosphere, and Piece & Love presents the jigsaw puzzle as an invitation to lose yourself in a long summer’s evening.
Is the Golden Hour jigsaw puzzle difficult?
Piece & Love rates it as a 7 out of 10 in terms of difficulty. Its 1,000 pieces therefore present a real challenge, particularly when it comes to matching the colours and shades in the illustration.

Yes. A poster featuring the design is included in the box and can be used as a guide whilst assembling the model. Piece & Love points out that more experienced model-builders can, of course, choose to do without it.
