1000-piece Winfred Rembert The Dirty Spoon Cafe Jigsaw Puzzle

“Every person I do. I got a movie about them in my head.”

"The Dirty Spoon Cafe" by Winfred Rembert (1945-2021) is inspired by the artist's childhood memories of the Southern juke joints in his hometown of Cuthbert, Georgia. The piece depicts the lively atmosphere of these establishments, where people would gather to dance, sing, and listen to music.

The artwork represents a significant moment in Rembert's life, capturing the energy and rhythm of his youth in a unique and vivid manner. Through his intricate leather carving and painting technique, Rembert not only recreates the scene but also imbues it with his own personal history, bringing to life a moment in time that would otherwise be lost to history. The high-style 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle of "The Dirty Spoon Cafe" is a delightful way to experience the joy and rhythm of Rembert's work.
