About the Author:
J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle – earth, created in his classic works 'The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings' and 'The Silmarillion', has for more than half a century inspired artists around the world. 'Realms of Tolkien 'is a celebration of Tolkien's imagination and the ingenuity of artists like Alan Lee, John Howe and Ted Nasmith who choose to realise his fantasy – every one of the 58 paintings offers a unique interpretation of Tolkien's realm, while retaining that familiar quality that makes it undeniably 'Tolkien'. Twenty new and familiar Tolkien artists are represented in this fabulous volume, breathing an extraordinary variety of life into 58 different scenes, each of which is accompanied by the appropriate passage from 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings'.
Alan Lee has illustrated The Lord of the Rings and is currently working on the illustration of The Hobbit. John Howe has illustrated many Tolkien covers, including the whole series of ‘The History of Middle-earth’. Ted Nasmith and Inger Idelfeldt have both produced illustrations for Tolkien Calendars, posters and book covers.
