Middle-Earth Tours

Tour 3: The Artists of Middle-Earth

Art from the Movies, Part 1a:
From The Fellowship of the Ring
This section of the tour includes most of the images from the "old" official movie site, which appears to have vanished for the time being (although Rolozo Tolkien has full-sized copies); images currently available on http://www.lordoftherings.net; and some of the choicest "spy" shots, etc., available on the web.

Note 1: I cannot place these pictures in precise order the way I can with artists' paintings because a)the movies will not follow the books exactly, and b) this section is growing so rapidly that it's just not practical to keep re-shuffling it. Check this page frequently for updates.

Note 2: In order to make loading easier, I have split the FotR movie gallery into several sub-pages. The most recent additions can be found on the last sub-page.
