With LEGO expanding its range of sets to adults more and more each, it's no surprise that a brand new LEGO Art set is rumoured for 2023. In particular, this set is 31208 The Great Wave Off Kanagawa based on the woodblock print by Katsushika Hokusai. The set was rumoured a few weeks ago but thanks to Promobricks.de we have further information about the January 2023 set.
The original woodblock print measures 25 x 37 cm and is one of the most famous Japenese prints ever. The LEGO version, including 1,810 pieces will have similar dimensions to the original but will most likely be a little smaller. The big wave will be made up of a mixture of 1x1 rounded tiles arranged in a mosaic with other various large plates.
This will make the set similar to this year's LEGO Art set of 31206 The Rolling Stones and may also come close to the LEGO Ideas set 21333 Vincent Van Gogh - The Starry Night. However, this LEGO Art set will retail for a relatively low price of $99.99 and, as already mentioned, is available from 1st January 2023.
