thanks folks for all the nice comments!
They are wonderful. Where did you find them?
somewhere on tumblr.yes, wonderful!

another one i missed
They remind me of Mary Blair - especially Sleeping Beauty. They also remind me of the stained glass window in Beauty and the Beast. Wonderful!
i don't know who Mary Blair is, will have to look her up.
OMG, they are amazing, better than the book(dear I say)....
Those are some damn epic pictures. They do the book full justice!
These are really beautiful. I'm impressed.
they remind me of the stained glass from Beauty and the Beast
These are really beautiful Mark... they would make an awesome Tarot Card Deck.
I'm so glad that people are still enjoying these wonderful images by Jian Guo. definitely agree with both the stained glass and tarot deck comments.

Thank you for sharing! These are lovely, and I need to come back one day to study them more closely.
Thank you for sharing. I love Tolkien's work and I drag my friends along to check out stained glass windows. What a beautiful combination.
I'm happy you liked them, Rhea & Nancy! Jian Guo has a lot of talent.
Stunning stuff, thanks for posting.

Oh, wow. Such beautiful mosaics! What I wouldn't give to see them in a series of windows!
A picture is worth a thousand words.... These pictures are truly in the same class with LOTR!!!!

Thanks dude .. you just made my day :)
It must be depiction from the film, as the book never mention about Sauron {The Eye} tower. However all the illustration was great. thanks

These illustrations cover the entire middle-earth franchise. Lord of The Rings, The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. I downloaded'em alll and made a theme for my laptop, it looks pretty cool
