The official Tolkien calendar, this year containing 13 breathtaking paintings inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien’s three `Great Tales` of Middle-earth: THE CHILDREN OF HÚRIN, BEREN AND LÚTHIEN and THE FALL OF GONDOLIN. Featuring beautiful artwork by Alan Lee, including a selection of stunning new paintings and drawings appearing here for the first time. The official Tolkien calendar has become an established publishing event, eagerly anticipated by Tolkien fans the world over. Previous Tolkien calendars have become much sought after collector’s items, and this year’s will doubtless be an essential purchase for fans everywhere. Published during Christopher Tolkien`s centenary year, it celebrates the peerless stewardship of his father`s work. This year’s calendar showcases 13 full-colour paintings by Alan Lee of scenes from across the First Age of Middle-earth, depicting key moments from the three `Great Tales` – The Children of Húrin, Beren and Lúthien and The Fall of Gondolin – that were published posthumously by Christopher Tolkien. Together they form the capstone to his unique literary contribution to our appreciation of his father`s invented world. Within these three tales can be found some of the most powerful, dramatic and moving moments within all of J.R.R. Tolkien`s legendarium, in which supreme heroism, tragic love, and profound malevolence unfold against a backdrop of unforgettable settings. Many of these are sublimely portrayed in Alan Lee`s peerless watercolour paintings and pencil drawings, and this portfolio is now enhanced by a selection of truly stunning, brand-new paintings, making this Official Tolkien Calendar an unmissable event. Featuring an insightful introduction by the artist himself, this new Calendar will allow fans to discover the First Age of Middle-earth in greater depth than ever before.

J. R. R. Tolkien engleski je književnik, pjesnik, filolog i sveučilišni profesor koji je najpoznatiji kao autor djela: Hobit, Gospodar prstenova i Silmarillion. Nakon Tolkienove smrti, njegov sin Christopher je objavio niz radova na temelju opsežnih bilješka i neobjavljenih rukopisa svoga oca, uključujući i Silmarillion koji se zajedno sa Hobitom i Gospodarom prstenova čini spojenu strukturu priča, pjesama, fiktivne povijesti te izumljenog jezika i književnih eseja o svjetovima zvanim Međuzemlje i Arda. Između 1951. i 1955. godine, Tolkien primjenjuje naziv legendarium za veći dio tih spisa. Iako su mnogi drugi autori objavljivali radove iz područja fantazije prije Tolkiena, veliki uspjeh Hobita i Gospodara prstenova je dovelo do izravnog populariziranja ovog žanra . Prema tome Tolkien se popularno identificira kao "otac modernog fantastičke literature. Godine 2008, prema listu The Times rangiran je kao šesti na popisu "50 najvećih britanskih pisaca od 1945. godine".
