The Mûmak of Harad

43.5 x 69.0 cm, 1995

The War of the Ring by Christopher TOLKIEN

The History of Middle-Earth Volume 8, HarperCollinsPublishers,

For ages and ages I kept a photograph of some sunlit rocks near a murky pond, hoping that some day an illustration would come from it...

The archers of Faramir's band are taken from The Medieval Soldier, and the Mumak from memories of those wonderful mammoths that Frank Frazetta engraved so deeply in my mind that I'll never be rid of them...

I do regret now having put the hobbits in their tree to the upper left, it seems much too contrived, but they usually seem to get cropped or covered by a text block anyway.

Käyttöoikeus: John Howe on ilmoittanut kotisivujensa keskustelufoorumilla ehdot kuviensa julkaisemiseen muilla sivustoilla:

To put it in a nutshell, there are four conditions for use of any of my imagery on a web site (not including of course photos by other persons; in that case their permission must be requested).

• 1. That the use be strictly non-commercial.
• 2. That the work be properly credited.
• 3. That a clear link to www.john-howe.com be provided.
• 4. Last but not least, that the use of the image be in accordance with the image itself. This is perhaps hard to make clear, but I would refuse, for example, use of one of my pictures to promote ideas, concepts or undertakings with which I disagree, or for which the image's prime purpose is only to attract attention to something entirely different.
