@tolkiendil.bsky.social "Quand la guerre a pris fin, en 1918, tous mes amis proches, sauf un, étaient morts." (Préface au Seigeur des Anneaux). L' #ArbrediTolkien ( #TolkienTrewsday) vous invite, en ce jour d'Armistice, à découvrir comment 🥀LA GRANDE GUERRE🥀 est partie intégrante de son oeuvre: ⤵️

Remembering my relatives who died in #WW1 & #WW2 Great Grandfather Clarence Weaver who died due to gas/Spanish Flu as a POW, my Grandad's children killed in #ClydebankBlitz & Granduncle Andrew McKendrick killed on the Somme probably by shelling #Remembrance #LestWeForget

Siegfried Sassoon, J.R.R. Tolkien, Mosab Abu Toha, Pramoedya Ananta Toer, and Usmar Ismail shared a thing: grounded, realistic depiction of war impacts and its subsequent disillusionment in modern era, forcing us to reexamine the fervor of "war glory". 🧵1/6 #TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday

Two new #Tolkien Deluxe editions next February from @harpercollins.bsky.social - Letters of J.R.R. #Tolkien and The Biography of J.R.R. #Tolkien www.tolkienguide.com/modules/newb...

In a letter to Christopher Bretherton (16 July 1964), Tolkien mentioned a nightmare of a great wave, which he wrote in The Lost Road and Akallabêth. It reminds me of "smong verse" from Simeulue, Aceh, which teaches islanders what to do when smong (tsunami) comes. 1/2 #TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday

Things got a bit damper in Númenor after this chap arrived. ‘The Haven of Moriondë’ Ltd Edition Roger Garland print and cover of The Lost Road & 1989 Tolkien Calendar. Love this painting. “Akallabêth” for #TolkienTrewsday #Tolkien @timbolton.bsky.social

📆 #TolkienTrewsday #Tolkien Week 141 (04/11/25): “Akallabêth” World Tsunami Awareness Day (5 NOV). #TolkienTuesday

It's Halloween and The Mewlips are about. One of my favourite poems from The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and this is a brilliant animation/song #Tolkien

Happy Birthday @ralphbakshi.bsky.social director of the brilliant 1978 animated Lord of the Rings. Just completed a celebratory jigsaw. Looks like the Hobbits have had too much birthday cake. #LOTR #Tolkien

The Mines of Moria by Ed Hirth #lotr

Perseverance for #TolkienTrewsday Plenty of perseverance in the Fellowship's quest, expecially from Frodo & Sam. Here they are getting rescued after destroying the ring courtesy of Gollum, in another great painting by Joan Wyatt. The Eagles Rescue Frodo & Sam #LOTR #Tolkien @timbolton.bsky.social

October the 24th & Frodo wakes up in Elrond's garage. "If only you'd stayed off the pints in The Prancing Pony!" said Gandalf. A Last not so Homely House not far from me #LOTR #Tolkien

It's Friday and here's fantasy and sci fi art elder Rodney Matthews' 2014 pic The Thief (2014), aka Bilbo Risks a Scorching to Steal a Cup from a Massively Sinister and Spikey Smaug. Favourite details here: the dragon's slit eye and the faux-Tengwar jars which hint at the original 1937 #Tolkien pic

October the 24th! Frodo awakens safe at Rivendell and then is lead by Sam through the high garden to the East Porch where Gandalf, Merry, and Pippin await him. Faithfully based on Professor Tolkien's own paintings and drawings of Imladris, but in reverse view. #Tolkien #TolkienArt

Picked up a couple of retro posters this year to add to the collection. A few are framed, some used to be on the wall when I was a student but unfortunately not enough space to display them all. #Tolkien #LOTR #TheHobbit #Silmarillion

294 of 365 - My first copy of the #Hobbit #Tolkien

"What has roots as nobody sees, Is taller than trees, Up, up, up it goes, And yet never grows?" Bilbo & Gollum riddling it out under the mountains courtesy of #MichaelHague & Rawcliffe Pewter Roots for #TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday #Tolkien #TheHobbit @timbolton.bsky.social

Today I present one of my favourite details from a #Tolkien illustration ever. Yes, as featured in John Blanche's riotous, head-thumping c. 1979 Battle of the Five Armies pic, it's the Warg who's lost his rider but doesn't give a shit because he's in the zone and running free in a leopard-skin 🐺🐺

Two Towers. Picked up a Danbury Mint Minas Tirith from a charity shop to oppose The Dark Tower on my window sill. #Tolkien #LOTR

Back in my Etsy shop, ‘Balrog’, inspired by Tolkien’s’Lord of the Rings’.#Tolkien #lotr #middleearth #balrog #moria #watercolour #tolkienart #fantasyart stephenwalshart.etsy.com/listing/1327...
