"At the Forest Gate" Now Gandalf too said farewell. Bilbo sat on the ground feeling very unhappy and wishing he was beside the wizard on his tall horse. He had gone just inside the forest after breakfast (a very poor one), and it had seemed as dark in therein the morning as at night, and very secret: "a sort of watching and waiting feeling," he said to himself.

Alan Lee was one of the leading designers in The Hobbit Trilogy set of movies from Peter Jackson. You can see that these posters from the 90s show a strong resemblance to those later films, his influence is undeniable.

Alan Lee does "still work" the best -- even when his subjects are in motion, they look very quiet and almost dreamlike. There's a lot of detail poured into these, since even small twigs, cracks and stains make their way into his artwork. They also tend to have muted, faded colours, lots of soft greys, browns and greens. Some of them look like sepia photographs.

These posters are sent as unframed. They will be sent in a cardboard backed envelope for protection.
