The official Tolkien calendar, this year
containing twelve stunning paintings inspired by the stories collected in
Unfinished Tales by J.R.R. Tolkien. Three of the world's finest Tolkien artists
present the Three Ages of Middle-earth in breath-taking glory.
The
official Tolkien calendar has become an established publishing event, eagerly
anticipated by Tolkien fans the world over. Previous Tolkien calendars have
become much sought after collector's items, and this year's will doubtless be
an essential purchase for Middle-earth fans everywhere, as it celebrates the
40th anniversary of Unfinished Tales.
To
commemorate this special occasion, three of the world's finest Tolkien artists
- Ted Nasmith, John Howe, and Alan Lee - have each contributed four full-color
artworks to the Calendar. To accompany each painting, every month features
complementary pencil drawings or sketches selected by the artists which are
exclusive to this calendar.
