This collection of pictures, with a text by Christopher Tolkien, now reissued after almost 30 years confirms J.R.R. Tolkien’s considerable talent as an artist. It provides fascinating insight into his visual conception of many of the places and events familiar to readers of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion.
Examples of his art range from delicate watercolours depicting Rivendell, the Forest of Lothlorien, Smaug, and Old Man Willow, to drawings and sketches of Moria Gate and Minas Tirith. Together they form a comprehensive collection of Tolkien’s own illustrations for his most popular books.
Also included are many of his beautiful designs showing patterns of flowers and trees, friezes, tapestries and heraldic devices associated with the world of Middle-earth. In their variety and scope they provide abundant visual evidence of the richness of his imagination.
This enchanting gallery was personally selected by Christopher Tolkien who, through detailed notes on the sources for each picture, provides unique insight into the artistic vision of his father, J.R.R. Tolkien.

Отличный артбук для поклонников творчества писателя, особенно его графических работ. В конкретно этом артбуке не так много иллюстраций к книгам, как в двух предыдущих альбомах, зато здесь много работ из различных календарей и подарочных изданий. Есть много цветных иллюстраций, и конечно же примечания и история их создания, описанная сыном Кристофером Толкиным.
Отличный артбук
Красивый артбук с интересной информацией, плотный картонный кофр, книга в твердом переплете, качественные изображения, на английском языке. Наблюдение за работами Толикна и его великолепных миров, которые он создал, не что иное, как вдохновение, поэтому очень люблю смотреть на его работы. Настоящая коллекционная вещь, которую нельзя пропустить.
