The companion audio/video links with this build carries this into a 5 star rating, I would have said 4.5, but listening to the behind the scenes brought extra significance to the build.
I normally categorize the pieces from each bag before building from it, but I was inspired to just pour them out and get to building ("wreckless artism" instead of "calculated autism" my husband says).
Took around 3 hours to make
I would recommend this to a friend!

Intricate and beautiful

This set was very detailed and well made. I enjoyed how the directions were in depth and accurate. While building the frame in the beginning, it was a peek into how tedious this set would be for me to complete. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly I got into my groove and how fast the time flew by. Being that this is my first real lego set, (excluding small sets from my childhood) I did not find myself dreading building this set (even though it was definitely challenging at times!) overall a beautiful set which will be hung up in my room shortly!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I loved doing this piece! The frame is perfection, the gold, all of the detail, it’s beautiful! The colors are amazing as an entirety & it is so well done. I wish they would do other paintings with frames like these.
Could hang as decor both at home or in an office setting as a conversation piece.
The obsession is real with this one ♥️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Who knew legos could be so beautiful?! I just finished the frame and i’m blown away how luxurious it looks. This is such a great past time project and great bonding time with me and my teenage daughter. I can’t wait to get this finished and hang it. I have been converted to a lego enthusiast!

Awesomeness in a Lego
on March 2, 2025
Posted by: aleannas_2214
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lego was so fun to build and such a fun way to display art. My son (11) completed this in two days. He builds a lot of complex lego sets so this may take longer to build for others but it’s a very cute lego option that will look great on your walls as well. The set seems to be durable, the only complaint is that the hook is hard to adjust on the wall.

If you love art and art history this set is a well worth the price. I built it in about 2.5 hours and enjoyed listening to the provided commentary with one of the designers and some experts on the Mona Lisa. I understand some people dislike the face but honestly I love it. The printed eyes look really good and to me, almost track the viewer from different angles like the real piece. There are a couple nifty build techniques used to achieve depth which I liked. I just wish they would've made a minifigure Leonardo Da Vinci like they did with Van Gogh and Starry Night. Overall the build experience is a little tedious with the frame, but it looks amazing and the actual painting build was very fun to see come together. I did have one of the gold smooth plates come with a blemish that is visible at an angle which was a little disappointing.
I love the art series and I am a huge van of Da Vinci and this piece was one I had to have for my office. I am a lover of legos but only by ones I really want to display (helps me safe) but this is one I HAD to have! It was a fun build, as I watched my favorite show about Da Vinci and it will go right next to my Van Gogh piece from a few years ago!
