Hiya,

By chance I came across some "Lego imitates art" like pictures, then I started looking for more and thought I'd share my finds with you. Hope you enjoy and contribute to the thread :).

Of course most of you already know this beatuiful Lego imitates great art. But I thought after three years, it's worth a repeat :).

Penthesilea:










And I find it poignant that the creator made sure to give his version of Ennis and Jack a long life :). From the website: "I took about the sets I had made up for the photo shoot. I found a place for Lego Jack and Lego Ennis to live on forever. I've put them into a Modular Hill Standard so they can be displayed at Lego shows for all the world to enjoy."
