Impossible to hang!
I love this piece of Lego as art. However it's absolutely impossible to hang

I LOVE
I absolutely love this set. It was such an easy, relaxing build. Some might think that putting on the flat pieces might get a little overwhelming, but it wasn’t too bad. My favorite part was honestly the back. I’m new to larger sets but build small ones all the time so idk how the other art pieces are. I love the amount of attention the back got. I love how all the piec...

Love the set but the instructions are wrong
I really like this set but was hesitant to buy it after reading reviews about the stability. I took a chance anyway and will say that the instructions are wrong for attaching the art piece to the frame. I used the app to build and thought maybe it was just the app but it’s the same in the book. Everything you need to fix the problem is in the box with extras you don’t n...

Beauty
I received as a gift, it's beautiful. Not my normal theme, but I thoroughly enjoyed the build.
I had to use the builder app.
The frame is solid, pieces stay intact, love the birds lol

Poorly designed dust collector
Building this was very boring. It doesn't look very good. Like I get Lego likes to use random animals to represent other things but the white birds look terrible and just adds more horizontal surface for dust to collect on. On top of all that, the thing doesn't even stay on the wall. The brackets that lego specifically designed to hold up "paintings" pop right off the n...

The Great Wave
The set was very tedious to complete. But the overhead view in the guidebook made it easy to complete.

Stunning
This set was a tedious but fun build! There is certainly a lot of value per piece and when it all comes together, it looks positively stunning - the 3D aspect of it is really cool and each tiny detail makes it come to life, resembling the real artwork. So cool!

Great Set Looks Nice
I like the look of this set a lot. It has built in catches for me to put hooks in the wall to hold it. Also, the podcast element of it was cool. While I built it I got to learn more about the real life art.

Something Different
Overall this was a great build my only real issue with this build was the numbering of the bags. There was multiple of the same number and Im not entirely sure as to why, also some bags weren't numbered at all which was kind of confusing.
I do love the colors, wall art aspect of it, the soundtrack while listening as you create. I appreciate all the effort that went in...
