Purchase options and add-ons

With Christopher Tolkien as your guide, take a tour through this colorful gallery of enchanting art by J.R.R. Tolkien, as published originally in the first groundbreaking Tolkien Calendars of the 1970s.

This collection of pictures, with a text by Christopher Tolkien, now reissued after almost thirty 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 HobbitThe Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion.

Examples of his art range from delicate watercolors 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

The book, physically, is nicely made and prints are reproduced well. Tolkien's originals are shown smaller than the colored versions. I wish they were the same size but that's a minor thing. For a Tolkien fan, this is $20 well spent!

I didn't realize my husband already had this since the cover was different. It's a very nice book. We gifted it to his LOTR-obsessed niece for Christmas.
Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2023
Wonderful selection of pictures, well rendered on quality paper in very crisp resolution. The commentary/notes aren't extensive, but do add helpful context. Many of the drawings are presented as pairs, with one early and one late/final draft, which is especially interesting. At this price, it's a very worth addition to any Tolkien library, and (I mean this in the best way) would make a frankly elite coffee table book.

Love this collection of Tolkein's art. A nice addition to your Tolkein library. Some pages there is lots of dead space, making you wish the publishers had gotten higher resolution reproductions printed at larger size to more fully enjoy, but all in all I am thrilled to add this to my middle earth collection.

This book could have been a $50-$60 collectors book for all I knew. I got it for my brother for his birthday as he is an avid LOTR fan.

He kept telling me I shouldn’t have spent so much on a gift! Lol the artwork is beautiful, the storage sleeve is very sturdy, and the material of the book cover is amazing.

He’s going to be using it as a coffee table book the kids are forbidden to touch. Ha ha

Reviewed in Brazil on November 23, 2023
Essa é uma obra que apresenta todas as ilustrações produzidas pelo próprio J.R.R. Tolkien para seus escritos sobre o Legendário da Terra-média e organizada por seu herdeiro literário, seu filho Christopher. Nessa nova edição, as gravuras foram escaneadas novamente, com mais qualidade e apresentando maior riqueza em termos de cores, tons e detalhes. Ao contrário da maioria dos escritores, Tolkien tinha grande predileção por ilustrar suas obras, e o fazia com grande perspicácia e qualidade, como aqui se comprova.
