Latest Tolkien art from Jef Murray

I thought I'd share these two paintings which arrived in my Inbox this morning. I'm not quite sure about Meduseld as it looks rather precarious and in danger of sliding off the hilside but the one of Andúnië in its later  years is suitably brooding and troubled, I think.

I haven't yet got the knack of posting photos since upgrading to Internet Explorer 7 about a week ago. I don't seem to be able to copy and paste them into the text any more, hence the double cut!

Goodness, how would horses (or people) get up that sheer cliff? They must have an underground elevator.

Andúnië in its later years... *sniff*

Oh, those are very mysterious and evocative, aren't they? Umm, not exactly how I picture Meduseld, but there you go... we all have different takes on things. Andúnië... gosh, it's beautiful and tragic. You feel the waves are already working at it.

Gorgeous!

And I agree with you about Meduseld. I can imagine that as the back of the building, but even then the back porch would have more support.

These look really great, though. I like them.

Oh these are both gorgeous!!! I like the one of Andunie especially...thank you so much for sharing these! =)

Hmm - Meduseld looks like the HQ for a lodge of mountaineering Masons...

Both pics are gorgeous, though I have to agree with you that Meduseld looks rather precarious up there. *g*

Posting photos is always a pain for me, but then I've probably found the most complicated way of doing it. ;P At least it works most of the time.
