A bit different from the movie version, but Tolkien was definetly a good artist.
most of the stuff i can find seemed to be just sketchs. he didnt do much in colour or paint 🙁
i didn’t think hobbit-houses were that big!
In the movie it mostly has just hobbit holes.
He’s a really good artist, but for some reason, I really don’t like this.
i like the picture, but mostly for its upper parts… the houses in the front are so… square..
ooo! it’s so pretty!
i’m surprised there are so many buildings, and that they seem to have tiled roofs, i though they’d be thatched
Actually, I;m not sure those are houses. That big one in fron is the mill, and as for those other ones…
… they look like some other important building… not houses
i didnt realise there was so many above ground bulidings, i mean i knew there was a few but this is suprising
I like this picture..! Espesially the upper parts…
tolkien’s pictures are always exactly how I imagined the scenes when I read them
i love this picture its really good, different to the film but i still like it
i think that’s just the mill- that big house. you can see their holes in the hills
and that hall might be the mathom house or the hall of Michel Delving or something
Moving to Hobbiton! O_o there’s Bag End. How prettyful.
I love this picture!
The mill’s just like the movie but the wheel went against the current in the movie.
In Bilbo’s times, it was mostly the richer and poorer hobbits that lived in holes.
*sigh* good ol’ Hobbitin…
this picture is gorgeous!
wow, very colorful! I like it, though!
It’s brilliant! I like how Tolkien imagined Hobbiton and the movie version too. They’re almost the same but a
bit different.
Very pretty! I wish I lived there…
If i stare it it a bit more i think id like some mushrooms from old Farmer Maggot too! 🙂
Yikes! so bright and colorful! Just where hobbits should live!
So pretty! But for some reason, I think the above-ground houses look rather big, almost too big for hobbits…
I really like this picture – looks like a perfect world! But aren’t the houses a little too big for hobbits?
pretty!
It’s beautiful!
i wike it…i tink its cute ^_^
The perfect shire…*sigh*…
well what can i say but beautiful… doesnt it make you proud to be a fan!
beautiful. i could never do anything like this.
Oh, my Dad has this pic on his FOTR copy…’cept it’s rather faded.
I love the shire!!!!!!
I’ve always liked this painting.
not really how I imagined the Hobbiton, but its prettiful.
this is my favorite picture done by Tolkien
this is a wonderful pic….its so colorful and bright
hehehe, it’s just so English! Feel like going around hobbiton on a bus tour or something – then staying!
didn’t tolkien write that hobbit “houses” were more like ‘bungalos’? these ones are to farm house-ish…LOL!
i like it so mutch tolkien was a real artist ! 😉
i love it! look, bagshot row! hehehehe
How beauty it is!!!!
This is on the cover of my copy of the Fellowship!
can I move there now? wonderful drawing!
If I had one wish it would be to live in Hobbiton as it is in that painting.
Hang out with Frodo,help Sam with the gardening. We’d chill at the Green Dragon.
