In #Tolkien’s mythology Eärendil carries a shining Silmaril upon his brow in his ship Vingilótë, and this is the star that gives its light to the phial of Galadriel in The #LordOfTheRings.

Tolkien wrote: “I have what some might call an Atlantis complex... the terrible recurrent dream (beginning with memory) of the Great Wave, towering up, and coming in ineluctably over the trees and green fields. (I bequeathed it to Faramir.)”

For @FolkloreThurs, some folklore-inspired beginnings (cosmogonies) of fantasy worlds:
Tolkien’s Ainulindalë
Lewis’ Aslan sings Narnia into being
Adams’ Lord Frith creates the animals
Dunsany’s creator god, Mana-Yood-Sushai
Can you think of others?

Then she did Bird Children (1912), some creepy examples of which I posted yesterday - here are some more! 🐤👶🏻 /2

THREAD: The plot thickens! Remember Elizabeth Gordon and her weird Bird Children I posted yesterday? Well, she first did Flower Children (1910) - still a bit weird/disturbing at points! (Illustrations by M.T. Ross) 🌸 👶🏻 /1
