Bodleian Library. J.R.R. Tolkien: Life and Legend: An Exhibition to Commemorate the Centenary of the Birth of J.R.R. Tolkien (1892–1973). Oxford: Bodleian Library, 1992.
This is a listing of all works in the Tolkien Art Index reproduced in J.R.R. Tolkien: Life and Legend: exhibition catalogue, presented in the same order. Insofar as TAI at this time indexes only artwork that is not demonstrably un-related to Middle-earth (see Purpose & Scope), this may not represent a complete listing of Tolkien’s art in J.R.R. Tolkien: Life and Legend: exhibition catalogue. Note that, as a side effect of presenting items in the order in which they’re reproduced in a book, items represented more than once within the book will be duplicated in this listing.
TAI #27 | “Halls of Manwe on the Mountains of the World above Faerie” Penciled on verso, “Halls of Manwe on the / Mountains of the World / above Faerie”. Also referred to as “Taniquetil.” | ||||||
