Vincent van Gogh’s The Starry Night painting is now an official LEGO Ideas set
You are a lover of art and LEGO this will enchant you
Truman Cheng’s Vincent van Gogh: The Starry Night project has been selected for release as an official LEGOIdeas set in the second 2020 review.
The design is based on the painting “The Starry Night” by van Gogh, painted in 1889.
The set re-imagines the original painting in a 3D scene, with strong emphasis on the artist’s iconic brush strokes and color choice.
Various techniques are used to reproduce van Gogh’s beautiful brush work.
Clips and brackets form the swirling cloud; plates stack to form the hillsides and bushes; curve parts build up to become the cypress tree. My favorite part is the inclined plate stack on the right, capturing the angled brush strokes within the moon-lit cloud.
In honor of the artist, a Vincent van Gogh minifigure is also included in the set. This also comes with:
- A paint brush
- Painting palette
His 1,552-piece set also includes: a Vincent van Gogh minifigure, paint brush, painting palette, easel, and “The Starry Night” mini-painting on a printed tile. However, LEGO has not yet finalized the official design that will be sold in stores.
