“There is the tragedy and despair of all machinery laid bare. Unlike art which is content to create a new secondary world in the mind, it attempts to actualize desire, and so to create power in this World; and that cannot really be done with any real satisfaction…” Tolkien, Letter 75

happy 48th birthday to our ethereal elven princess liv tyler; thank you for bringing arwen to life in such a meaningful way, and for inspiring so many girls like me to love and cherish the fantasy genre growing up alongside miranda otto and cate blanchett ♡

Elrond and Celebrian in a more sketchy stile #art #silmarillion #lotr

‘for i am the daughter of elrond. i shall not go with him now when he departs to the havens; for mine is the choice of lúthien, and as she so i have chosen, both the sweet and the bitter.’

girls will be like “I needed this” and it’s the Downfall of Sauron

the lord of the rings as paintings — a thread 🪡

manifesting s3 lady of light galadriel 💫✨ now that filming has started i’m really hoping the costume department will have dressed galadriel in some beautiful golden gowns and armour to symbolise the light of laurelin (the golden tree)

yeah yeah "j.r.r. tolkien describing a tree" or whatever but the descriptions of scenery in lord of the rings are genuinely so good. like upsettingly, magically good. tearing-at-your-hair-because-you-want-to-write-like-that good. and it's like every third line

quote with your core four ♡ (and yes i have included my elle fanning celebrían fan cast)

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

#sixfanarts 5/6: faramir and éowyn #thelordoftherings #lotr

one of my favourite míriel looks! this headpiece is absolutely gorgeous ♡

elrond and arwen’s matching butterfly designs are so important to me ♡

‘the next day at the hour of sunset aragorn walked alone in the woods… he saw a maiden walking on a greensward among the white stems of the birches; and he halted amazed, thinking that he had strayed into a dream.’

In Minas Tirith, Faramir sees a shadow rise above Mordor. ‘It reminds me of Númenor…of the great dark wave climbing over the green lands and above the hills, and coming on, darkness unescapable. I often dream of it.’ But the Shadow departs. He kisses Éowyn upon the high wall.

hi all! ♡ returning here after a bit of a hiatus (because i’m awful at being consistently active on multiple platforms) i’m really excited to start posting again, and to catch up with trop rewatch/all of my trop mutuals and elrond girlies this week!

Luthien, Huan, and a (for the moment) defeated Sauron - the early stages of this painting. With brushes for size #art

'and it was then that elrond first saw celebrían, and loved her, though he said nothing of it.' i won't be joining #TROPrewatch today as it's my birthday, but i wanted to create a special edit to mark the occasion and of course it had to be of my beloveds! ♡

this is such exciting news ♡ both are wonderful actors and i’m so happy to welcome them to our beloved cast!! i’m really hoping jamie will play either celeborn or glorfindel ✨

my dream wardrobe ♡

seeing all of these beautiful concept designs (especially for the elven realms) makes me so excited to see how they present rivendell in the series, and how it will differ from the trilogy! ♡🍃

‘this was my choice 𝘢𝘥𝘢, whether by your will or not, there is no ship now that can bear me hence.’

smiling elrond has my whole heart ♡ #TROPrewatch

'i watch rings of power for the plot.' the plot: #TROPrewatch

it's finally time!! #TROPrewatch episode two ♡🍃

what do you think elrond sees when he looks at legolas and gimli? i'm looking forward to seeing my favourite duo reunite in tomorrow's #TROPrewatch! ♡

modern-day elrond & celebrían 🍂

These Morfydd pictures are so dear to me. ♡

‘you gave away your life's grace, i cannot protect you anymore.’

and before you ask, yes i did spend most of the episode thinking about happy, gentle elrond ♡ #TROPrewatch

a little late but starting now! episode one, let's go! ♡ #TROPrewatch

happy valentine’s day! ♡

'where there is love it is never truly dark.' sharing one of my favourite elrond edits in honour of the #TROPrewatch ♡ i'm so excited to see our beloved half-elf again!

celebrían hairstyle inspiration 🌷 i can actually imagine this being one of her favourites! a style which is both reminiscent of the name that celeborn gave galadriel (alatáriel: ‘maiden crowned with a radiant garland’) and a style which galadriel was also known to wear.

Frodo with flowers (Based on Italian Girl with Flowers by Joaquin Sorolla)

the feminine urge to recreate arwen’s coronation look

I’m gonna keep on dancing at the Prancing Pony Club

call me celebrían because that man is husband material

i think i’m going to start posting a few of my lotr/rop edits here, as well as some of the elrond content i posted previously on x (just because i miss him ♡)
