In a flurry of reveals, the LEGO Group have officially presented the second LEGO Art-branded set of 2026, following on from the already available 31218 Japanese Cherry Blossom Landscape. In particular, on the 1st of March 2026, 31220 Claude Monet – Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies will be available for LEGO Insiders, followed by a general release on the 4th of March. The latest LEGO 18+ model will retail for $249.99 / €199.99 / £179.99 with a total of 3,179 pieces included.


Designed in collaboration with The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, 31220 recreates Claude Monet's Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies painting, part of the Water Lilies series, which consists of about 250 impressionist paintings. It joins the likes of  31213 Mona Lisa and 31215 Vincent van Gogh - Sunflowers, which recreate some of the most iconic pieces of artwork ever seen in brick-built LEGO form.




31220 Claude Monet – Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies will even be on display and readily available from the The Metropolitan Museum of Art itself from the 1st of March 2026. Here, art and brick enthusiasts will be able to get a glimpse of the extremely detailed and unique LEGO display piece, which focuses on capturing the soft, impressionistic colours seen in the original painting by the French artist.


A variety of blues, greens, purples and pinks were originally used to represent the water, lily pads and subtle reflections, and these bright and unique colours return in the brick-built LEGO version revealed today. However, the clever LEGO designers have captured these colours, and the unique details of the original painting, using LEGO butterfly, flower and fruit elements to reflect Monet's love of the natural world.


The bridge is arguably the main focal point of the LEGO Art set and is captured in a range of blue tones. But even more clever uses of the brick can be found elsewhere, as the diagonal stroke of light, which is so prominent in the original painting, has been carefully recreated using lighter elements running from the top right to the bottom left. LEGO have further stayed true to the original by placing more lilies on the right than on the left, referencing Monet's embrace of nature's irregularities.
