A special project: Renoir – “Luncheon of the Boating Party”

It is known that leisure activities are of great importance for an employee, especially in the demanding shipping sector, in order to maintain one’s creativity, develop skills such as leadership, social and communication skills and it also constitutes a way to recover from the daily stress. In a working environment, team building activities are also useful for they contribute in enhancement of personnel’s bonding, team spirit and efficient cooperation, something that fields such as art, sports etc. are able to do so. Under this concept, our Technical department took the initiative to do a 1500 piece jigsaw puzzle portraying the famous picture of Renoir’s “Luncheon of the Boating Party”, which was completed on 8th of July after approximately 6 months. The puzzle is now displayed in our premises, as it is shown in the pictures below, together with the technical department’s most ardent players who contributed in its completion. Our “puzzle-team” is now working on the new special Project which constitutes another famous painting: the Georges-Pierre’s Seurat’s “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte”.
