#TolkienTuesday #TolkienTrewsday In thinking of how the elves loved the mellyrn, I thought they would make their burden on them light. A detail of this painting in the reception chamber of Celeborn and Galadriel is that the partitions are woven of a cloth of the leaves, rather than something heavy.
For International Women's Day we've picked four iconic women from J.R.R. #Tolkien's works that play crucial roles in the story. Lobelia Sackville-Baggins (John Howe), Elbereth (Kimberly), Lúthien (Ted Nasmith), and Elwing (Elena Kukanova). But who are your favourites? #IWD #Booksky
