As the brave companions of the Fellowship journey south amongst jagged peaks, the Misty Mountains rise like a great wall of rock and snow: vast and insurmountable. Having set out from the haven of Rivendell and lead by Gandalf the Grey, the four Hobbits, Elf, Men, Dwarf, and pony seek a way through the mountains to the lands of the east beyond.
Wētā Workshop designer Gus Hunter depicts the Fellowship in the early days of their secret quest to ferry the weapon of their enemy, the One-Ring of Sauron, to Mordor, the one place where it can be destroyed. This beautiful print celebrates the 20th anniversary of Sir Peter Jackson’s feature film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
This moment has been expertly captured by Gus Hunter: long-time Wētā Workshop conceptual designer who started on The Lord of The Rings trilogy alongside Jeremy Bennett and was an early adopter of the digital painting techniques Wētā uses today.
There are people of extraordinary talent operating in today's world that have similar skills as the great masters of yesteryear. It just happens to be that the canvas that they paint on is the darkened screen of the cinemas of the world.
The dimensions of the print are 23.2in x 11.7in (590mm x 297mm). A lovely cinematic format. Exactly the same size as the previously released prints.
Printed on good quality 170 gsm satin paper.
