At number four I present an elegant medieval-inspired paragraph ornament by Edward Johnston in Writing & Illuminating & Lettering (1908) up against the lovely decorative frieze featured in the illustration Glorund sets forth to seek Túrin (1927) by our man (4/7)

I often dream of a Christmas adaptation of The Hobbit. It could be traditionally animated (stop-frame folks!) or brought to life by character actors inhabiting festively lit settings akin to the shimmering Wilderland depictions of Latvian illustrator Laima Eglïte (1991)
