"The Siege of Angband"


And afterward they laid the Siege of Angband which lasted more than two hundred years; and Fingolfin boasted that Morgoth could never burst from his leaguer, though neither could they take Angband nor recover the Silmarils. But war never ceased utterly in all this time, for Morgoth was secretly arming, and ever and anon would try the strength and watchfulness of his foes.

"The White Tower Of Elwing"


On those journeys Elwing did not go, for she had not the strength to endure the cold and pathless voids, and she loved rather the earth and the sweet winds that blow on sea and hill. Therefore she let build for her a white tower upon the borders of the outer world, in the northern region of the Sundering Seas; and thither all the sea-birds of the earth at times repaired.

The Artist is John Howe.
"Ulmo, The Lord Of Waters"


Then Tuor bowed in reverence, for it seemed to him that he beheld a mighty king. A tall crown he wore like silver, from which his long hair fell down as foam glimmering in the dusk; and as he cast back the grey mantle that hung about him like a mist, behold! he was clad in a gleaming coat, close-fitted as the mail of a mighty fish, and in a kirtle of deep green that flashed and flickered with sea-fire as he strode slowly towards the land.

"Fingolfin's Challenge To Morgoth"


'In that vast shadow once of yore Fingolfin stood: his shield he bore with field of heaven's blue and star of crystal shining pale afar. In overmastering wrath and hate desperate he smote upon that gate, the Gnomish king, there standing lone, while endless fortresses of stone engulfed the thin clear ringing keen of silver horn on baldric green.'

This image comes from J.R.R Tolkien's "The Book of Lost Tales - Part I."

"The Door Of Night"


'Its pillars are of the mightiest basalt and its lintel likewise, but great dragons of black stone are carved thereon, and shadowy smoke pours slowly from their jaws.'

This image comes from J.R.R Tolkien's "Book of Lost Tales - Part II."
The Artist is John Howe.
"Glorfindel and the Balrog"


'That Balrog that was with the rearward foe leapt with great might on certain lofty rocks that stood into the path on the left side upon the lip of the chasm... Then Glorfindel leapt forward upon him, and his golden armour gleamed strangely in the moon.'

This image comes from J.R.R Tolkien's "Book of Lost Tales - Part II."
The Artist is John Howe.
"The Battle For Gondolin"


'And now came the Monsters across the valley and the white towers of Gondolin reddened before them; but the stoutest were in dread seeing those dragons of fire and those serpents of bronze and iron that fare already about the hill of the city; and they shot unavailing arrows at them.'
