LEGO shines a spotlight on ‘The Great Wave off Kanagawa’ painting by Katsushika Hokusai. It has been an iconic work of art since it was painted back in the 1830s. The original woodblock print has been seen across the globe on various items and now it makes its way onto LEGO.
The dynamic set joins the LEGO Art series entitled The Great Wave, which transforms the classic work into a three-dimensional bricked art piece. It appears as if the waves are coming out of the base canvas. The set comes with 1,810 pieces and highlights subjects including the large wave, the small boasts, as well as the backdrop of Mount Fuji. All of the tiles are 1 x 1 sizing and have layered plates to create depth.
