LEGO Vincent Van Gogh Starry Night

LEGO Ideas 21333 Vincent van Gogh - The Starry Night has undergone a few changes since the original design that achieved 10000 supporters.

The Vincent van Gogh minifigure has undergone a considerable makeover since the original project, with the design of the printing on the torso, arms and less now matching the signature brushstrokes of the original painting. Ready to attach to the frame, a stand for the miniature painting and the minifigure of Vincent van Gogh gives the set some scale, depicting the artist creating the artwork while offering a place to store the minifigure when it’s on display. From the look of the minifigure to an all-new aspect of the model, 21333 Vincent Van Gogh – The Starry Night has changed a lot since it earned 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas.

Another fan-built creation becomes an official Lego building set and a brick-built masterpiece.

Both can be attached to the larger painting using a small arm and positioned as if the tiny Van Gogh is drawing inspiration from it. And what better way to convince grownups to welcome Lego into their homes than with a set that recreates one of the most famous paintings of all time: Vincent Van Gogh’s “The Starry Night”. Created in participation with New York’s Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) where the painting currently resides, the Lego version is less than half the size of Van Gogh’s original, but manages to make the piece even more engaging by adding roughly five inches of depth detail to the masterpiece.

This 2316-piece set features not only a very interesting sculptural approach to the impressionistic masterpiece, but a minifigure of Vincent van Gogh himself.

It’s a very unique method to recreate the brushwork and sense of motion that van Gogh brough to his image. Here’s a GIF that compares the original painting to the finished LEGO version. The frame has a wide base, but the weight of the foreground is enough to unbalance it. The last parts of the painting are the houses that sit in the extreme foreground. Thanks to that singular connection, the stack of plates sits at an unusual angle, creating a sense of motion as we move up into the night sky., This is necessary due to the hefty weight of the completed model. The stair-step ledges of plate and brick are integrated into the back, making for a very sturdy base. I put Lil’ Vincent in among the unbagged parts for a sense of scale. Construction starts out in the lower left corner of the work, with a sturdy base that will hold the cypress tree. But before we get to the larger painting, we get to build a minifigure scale version complete with the artist. The final inset on the lower right shows the “play feature” of a movable minifigure stand that can be attached to the bottom edge. The back of the box shows the completed model in situ, at a slightly raked angle that give you a hint of the physical depth of the build.

While he considered the work a “failure” during his lifetime, it has since become the Post-Impressionist's most famous painting—encapsulating Van Gogh's bold and colorful style.
