No thanks needed! I can only imagine how incredible this piece looks in person. I'll never forget Greg Hildebrandt showing me a few of the original Tolkien calendar paintings and being blown away by how magnificent they looked off the printed page. Such vibrant colors and masterful techniques!

Always great talking to another Tolkien fan and collector!

I plan on uploading some more of the collection on here this weekend- hope you enjoy!

What a wonderful painting of Mr Tolkien NY the Bros. Makes me so wistful.

This is so beautiful, a beautiful and fantastical sentiment. I've always loved the Brother Hildebrandt's Tolkien paintings.
