As the brave companions of the Fellowship journey south
amongst jagged peaks, the Misty Mountains rise like a great wall of rock and
snow: vast and insurmountable. Having set out from the haven of Rivendell and
lead by Gandalf the Grey, the four Hobbits, Elf, Men, Dwarf, and pony seek a
way through the mountains to the lands of the east beyond.
Wētā Workshop designer Gus Hunter depicts the Fellowship in
the early days of their secret quest to ferry the weapon of their enemy, the
One-Ring of Sauron, to Mordor, the one place where it can be destroyed. This
beautiful print celebrates the 20th anniversary of Sir Peter Jackson’s feature
film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of
the Ring.
This moment has been expertly captured by Gus Hunter:
long-time Wētā Workshop conceptual designer who started on The Lord of The
Rings trilogy alongside Jeremy Bennett and was an early adopter of the digital
painting techniques Wētā uses today.
