A few months ago I brought these lines en Creativos Online a series of illustrations by JRR Tolkien himself. A series of drawings that showed Tolkien's artistic gifts other than what he is known to be for his highly popular books such as The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings.

Due to his talent also in drawing and illustration, today he is the moment for a gallery of 110 images created by Tolkien in which landscapes, letters, interiors and animals are revealed from the same creator of Middle Earth. A unique opportunity to extend the dimensions of the imaginary world created by Tolkien himself through his illustrations.

From this gallery you can access more than 100 illustrations created by Tolkien himself and in which you will find even descriptions of the author that offer more information about the places and lands of Middle Earth.

If it was already his great talent writing one of the best works of fantastic literature, being able to opt for Tolkien himself to give light to that imagined world through illustrations and drawings is a great opportunity for fans of his literary work. It is not easy for the same writer to later have the creative power to illustrate their own characters, landscapes or world where hundreds of stories take place.

The illustrations that can take you to important moments of the Company of the Ring as it happens with the drawing West Gate of Moria. And while many readers will want to clean up their imaginary to produce their own places, characters or their own world, Tolkien's illustrations have much more value than even all the films created by Peter Jackson, since the imagination will always exceed what can be illustrated or shown cinematographically.
