The Art of the Lord of the Rings - Tolkien J. R. R. - książka
Producent: HarperCollins
The Art of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien is a richly illustrated art book showcasing nearly 200 pieces of artwork, including sketches, drawings, paintings, and maps crafted by J.R.R. Tolkien himself for his epic saga, The Lord of the Rings. Throughout the creation of his masterpiece, Tolkien frequently translated his vivid internal visions into art, from spontaneous scribbles within his manuscripts to more polished illustrations. While only a handful of these artworks were intended for the public, they primarily served as a creative tool for Tolkien, aiding him in envisioning and maintaining the intricate narrative. Many of these artworks do not correspond directly to the published text but rather highlight the imaginative process behind his writing and world-building.The book not only captures visual sketches but also includes an array of maps charting the evolution of regions like the Shire and the extensive terrain of Middle-earth. Furthermore, it features inscriptions in runes and Elvish script alongside 'facsimile' pages from the scorched and blood-marked Book of Mazarbul, reinforcing Tolkien's role as an 'editor' or 'translator' of ancient lore. Compiled into a cohesive volume, this collection presents over 180 images, all reproduced in vibrant color through high-quality scans and photographs.Edited by renowned Tolkien experts Wayne G. Hammond and Christina Scull, the book also offers an authoritative introduction and insightful commentary. Fans of The Art of The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien, to which this book serves as a companion, will undoubtedly find The Art of The Lord of the Rings equally captivating.
