The Lord of the Rings, Deluxe Edition, 1
50th anniversary edition includes three volumes of The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King), along with an extensive new index.
As for the one of a kind paintings themselves, Mandy Howard begins with clamping the book between two pieces of wood, followed by mapping out fan favorite scenes from the beautiful movies. Using watercolor paints and spraying each painting with matte varnish, the completed artwork is protected from dust. Due to the pressure from the clamps, the paint does not seep past the edge of the page.
The fore-edge paintings feature Frodo taking in the view of Rivendell, Gandalf and the Balrog, and finally the Fellowship lined up.
While the pages can still be turned, this is recommended to be purchased as a decorative addition to your personal library, rather than to be read. This is due to the fact that the oils on our hands can damage the painting over time.
