What a description of MORGOTH:
“for to him that is pitiless the deeds of pity are ever strange and beyond reckoning.”
(Art by Asha Venger)
“On a time of night Eärendil at the helm of his ship saw her come towards him, as a white cloud exceeding swift beneath the moon, as a star over the sea moving in strange course, a pale flame on wings of a storm.”
The earliest drawing of Tolkien’s secondary world. This depicts Valinor and the Two Trees producing the light of the sun and the moon.
The Bodleian Library in Oxford retains 500 boxes of doodles and other drawings by Tolkien in a fireproof room. ❤️🔥
The tin-whistle and the fiddle in Howard Shore's LOTR soundtrack is forever cemented in my mind as the sounds of The Shire.
Delightfully whimsical!
