The Tolkien Calendar 2011 features 13 paintings by the artist Cor Blok. Cor Blok is the only artist ever to have met JRR Tolkien, and the only artist Tolkien admired enough to purchase some of his work. The paintings are inspired by Tolkien’s classic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings and were completed during the early 1960s when the young artist was attempting to create a Bayeux tapestry approach to illustrating this monumental book. Many of this paintings included here have never been seen before. This delightful collection of scenes takes the reader on a unique journey through the beauty and drama of Middle-earth. It represents a truly charming addition to the series of official calendars by a gifted artist, and promises to be a memorable calendar for fans.
Editorial : About the AuthorJohn Ronald Reuel Tolkien (1892-1973) was a major scholar of the English language, specializing in Old and Middle English. Twice Professor of Anglo-Saxon (Old English) at the University of Oxford, he also wrote a number of stories, including most famously The Hobbit (1937) and The Lord of the Rings (1954-1955), which are set in a pre-historic era in an invented version of the world which he called by the Middle English name of Middle-earth.
It's a beautiful story about a woman finding her roots that takes her to the Danish Resistance in WWII and discovering love in the luscious landscape of Sonoma, CA. Viewing and reading the book cannot help but bring peace to your heart and an ache for the safety and well being of these most intelligent and beautiful creatures. In Wanderone's defense, his snookering (pardon the pun) of the media and the general public was a masterpiece of p.r. A gentle reflection with rich illustrations -- some seldom and never before seen photographs -- and a rich and handsome design. Since she cannot see how such "different" women would want to be companions, she assumes that Harrison only chose Mirrlees because of her family's wealth and that Mirrlees chose Harrison because she wanted fame by association. The only thing I do not like is the layout of the actual calendar page. Eliot and Andre Gide, among others. The significance of events were presented with more "importance" than they had at the time
