These 'Lord Of The Rings' Illustrations Are Just Precious


Houghton Mifflin Harcourt has published a book of J.R.R. Tolkien's sketches for the 60th anniversary of the series. Edited by Christina Scull and Wayne Hammond, The Art of The Lord of the Rings contains over 180 of Tolkien's drawings.

Only a few of the featured maps and landscapes were initially intended for publication, while Tolkien used the rest as visual aids in his epic world building. Check out a selection of images from the collection below and spend a few moments in a universe where Peter Jackson's "Hobbit" octalogy needn't exist.
