We Build LEGO Vincent van Gogh - Sunflowers, Which Contains a Hidden Surprise for Art Lovers

This LEGO Art Vincent van Gogh – Sunflowers set is a substantial piece: 21 inches high and 16 inches wide—roughly 60% the scale of the original painting. Its size makes it a statement piece, demanding display as art rather than just a collectible. This reflects LEGO's ongoing transition from novelty item to sophisticated adult hobby.

The set is a tribute to one of van Gogh's most iconic works. Van Gogh's deep connection to sunflowers, symbolizing gratitude, is well-documented. He famously declared his ownership of the sunflower as an artistic motif.

He painted several sunflower series, with the fourth version and its repetitions being the most renowned. The LEGO set replicates the version housed at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, famed for its vibrant colors. The Van Gogh Museum collaborated with LEGO on this project.

The 2,615-piece set includes 34 numbered bags and instructions with a QR code linking to a podcast about van Gogh. The build process is thoughtfully designed. You first construct the frame, then the canvas, finally mounting the canvas within the frame—a satisfyingly realistic process.

A clever detail mirrors van Gogh's addition of a wooden strip to the top of his canvas. LEGO cleverly replicates this with brown bricks, a subtle nod to the original's imperfections. This hidden detail adds a layer of enjoyment for the builder.

Building the sunflowers is somewhat repetitive, reflecting the dedication of the original artist. The seemingly random placement of wilting flowers and profile views creates a realistic effect when viewed from a distance.

The finished piece is designed for display. Its intended placement on a wall is a key consideration, offering long-term enjoyment beyond the building process. This is a high-quality LEGO set, well worth the investment.

The LEGO Vincent van Gogh - Sunflowers (Set #31215), priced at $199.99, is exclusively available at the LEGO Store.
