"...A travel-stained cloak of heavy dark-green cloth was drawn close about him, and in spite of the heat of the room he wore a hood that overshadowed his face."

Reminds me more of Luthien…I love the grey eyes!
wow, she’s really beautiful… she’s just perfect!
wasnt she a descendant of luthien i would guess they would look simelar yes i agree its lovely
Wow, this is a lovely piece of art! Howe did a great job on this.
She looks like someone from a movie…but I cant place who. I dunno, Jemmifer Ehle will always be my Arwen
I Love this PIC! She looks a little like Liv doesn’t she?
she’s pretty but looks rather jaded…
Exactly what I thought that she would look like when I first read the book
She looks really pretty, but kind of sad in a way. Maybe it’s the angle her head is tilted at.
this is a VERY cool picture! It reminds me of Diana from Anne of Green Gables(the movie)
She reminds me of Jennifer Connelly! I knew she’d make a good Arwen! 🙂
oh yeah Aowyn, you’re right she does
i think it is Jennifer Connelly…as she appeared in Labyrinth! 🙂
She’s very pretty. Something happened to her eyelashes though…or is it just me?
her eyelashs look normal to me manraviel
I agree with Aowyn — striking resemblance to Jennifer Connelly (who would have made a great Arwen!)
Very pretty, but she looks different from how I imagined her.
Someone FINALLY got the hair right!
Woah she looks fantastic! 🙂 Really beautiful here,how I imagined her first. 🙂 Maybe less ‘still’, though.
Just perfect. Sad, but then again she’s supposed to be.
i love it!
This is EXACTLY how I would have imagined Arwen if I had read the bboks before the movie. She looks perfect!
She’s beautiful!! She looks exactly like Tolkien described her!
So pretty. Eronlover, I was thinking the same thing.
thats freakin beautiful.
thats so exactly like i pictured her! its beautiful
THIS is how an elf is supposed to look… beautiful and distant and ageless.
Definitely one of the most gorgeous renditions of Arwen I’ve seen… you can tell she’s descended from Lúthien
I’ve go the saller version of this, you know, the one that pops up in the Random Block thingy, in my folder on
my computer.
Oopies. That’s *smaller*.
She looks rather cat-like. I swear that that pattern on her dress was used in the movie.
Hail Tolkien for creating Arwen, Hail Howe for drawing her!
Exactly how I imagined her! My favorite pic of Arwen.
*jaw drops* the most beautiful picture of Arwen I have ever seen!!!
wow, truly amazing
She does look like the chica from”Labrynth”, and i’m glad someone finally got the eyes right!
GORGEOUS.
It’s not fair, she’s so pretty! HAHA!
Just how I pictured her from the book.
Arwen beautiful smart and brave ! what a girl she is
Wow, Arwen, what a beautiful woman, oops, I mean, an elf she is!!
This is exactly how I imagioned Arwen. John Howe is such an amazing artist. I’m so glad they used on the movie
she looks like the girl from Labyrinth.
She looks like an angel! If she only had white clothes on. She looks beautiful!
she looks like a vampire to me. Graceful, cold, and beautiful all the same.
Barbie! (and i mean that as a compliment)
all I can say is absolutely amazing.
wow!! Howe got skills. people are so hard to do.Realy excellent.
You know who she reminds me of? Jennifer Connelly.
yea me too she reminds me of Jennifer Connelly. kkk good point, Laitaine Hinnim
Hmm, no I can’t see Jennifer Connelly. But WOW, no wonder Aragorn thought she was Luthien!
THIS is how I picture both Arwen and Luthien.
Jennifer Ehle? Jennifer Connelly? really? I love Liv in the part, shes so feminine, and this captures the…
She’s almost exactly the way I pictured her before the movies came out. This is the true Arwen!
Note: the character “Arwen” existed before the movies, and even before Liv Tyler. I think it’s cool that
someone understands there are BOOKS, and she doesn’t have to look like Liv, who portrays that character!!!
Yep, that’s Arwen – and Luthien, too. Just perfect.
If the painter made this before Liv Tyler was decided to play Arwen in the movies, then it’s a great picture!
even if it is a painting, man i wish i looked like that
Ok, actually, looking at this again, the eyes look right, it’s just she does look like Sarah from “Labrynth”
i want her grey eyes. she looks very beautiful!!!
the way this pic captures arwen, its almost as if it should have been liv,
but yet, theres still something missing in it like it was left to where anybody else could have played her
its absolutely amazing that the artist did this before the movies..wow i took up three boxes–going now!
this picture is perfect though. the face is a little narrow but it’s beautiful!
Jennifer Connelly wud have played arwen better look how pretty she is!!!!!!!!!!
wow, I wished I would look like that…
beautiful painting 🙂 and yeah it should’ve been Jennifer Connelly
Wow yeah I imagined Arwen to look a lot lke this before the movies came out.
Liv Tyler DID play her well, though, you have to admit.
Ever since I saw the movies, I loved Liv as Arwen. Ever since I read the books, I’ve wanted to look exactly as
Tolkien describes Arwen. And here she is!!!!! Absoulutly gorgeous!!!!!
I think this is a great picture. John Howe did it really awesome.
Perfect Arwen. Just perfect. (Liv was ok but… this is perfect.)
Ooh, I love it. She looks like she’s listening to an elven song in the Elven Hall… when Frodo first sees her
… in the books. Exactly as I imagined her, even though Liv did a pretty good job.
she does look like Jennifer Connely who would have been good for the role…..
but liv tyler did a good job as well
and the light of stars was in her bright eyes, grey as a cloudless night…
so , beautiful
One of the most beautiful paintings I’ve ever seen.
she has very lush lips….a bit like Ms. Jolie….
I so agree with Aowyn and the others. A dead ringer for Jennifer Connely. But Liv did a wonderful job, in my
opinion…
I think she resembles Andrea Parker.
just perfect…Liv ist beautiful,and this too!
It’s a beautiful painting, but I think her expression and tilted head makes her look a little too Barbieish
Absolute Stunner, All elves should look like this, Stunning 😀
I like it, Ral
oopsie, I meant to say: I like it, really, I do. And yet, it reminds me of a barbie doll.
looks like luthien but still very pretty!
Beautiful! Very beautiful indeed!
In FotR Arwen is described as being more beautiful than anyone Frodo could have hoped to imagine. This
painting is pretty, but not that sort of incredible, jaw dropping beauty. I think Liv was just right.
Jennifer Conelly I’ve always found VERY ugly…but that’s just me.
I really like the details on the dress, very nice picture.
I wish she was smiling… but i guess that has a lot to do with how authentic it is… Tolkien didn’t write
Arwen to be a happy-go-lucky chic… she was old, yet not so… with the troubles of the world upon her, hey,
I wouldn’t want to hafta choose between aragon and the undying lands… would you??
god,i wish that be womans like that in this world
Very pretty but also very sad.
Beautiful .Just how i picture Arwen Evenstar
The light of wisdom and many seasons passed in eyes that have beheld many things in the world.
A light wreathed in sorrow, yet a light unquenchable.
I like the eyes.
I love this picture, the way she is staring so dreamily as though she is thinking of Aragorn and of the fact
that she will be leaving all of her kin behind. Very well done.
She looks like an angel from Heaven. *Deep sigh.*
Beautiful! Just how I’d picture her! I love Howe’s imagination…
I Love This Pic! She Looks So Inocent But Also So Understanding of what Middle-Earth’s Evils.
she’s beautiful, but looks like Luthien (grey eyes, blue dress, black hair)
Beautiful! But I think she is more “human” than “elf”.In the movie, some oriental element in the makeup and…
Beautiful! But I think she is more “human” than “elf”.In the movie, some oriental element in the makeup and…
…and habiliments makes them more mysterious and more “Elf”.
Now *that* makes me think “Tinuviel on earth again.”
Wow she looks a lot like Liv! I like the blue/grey eyes, she’s beautiful!
She’s supposed to look like Luthien! I was so mad that PJ didn’t have Liv Tyler wear grey contacts, as I do…
…believe that is does say somewhere in the books that Arwen has grey eyes.
LOL she looks like my cousin =o)
this is very beautiful .. very arwenish 😉 .. reminds me of Luthien, but i think that’s the point 🙂
I don’t really know about this one. She almost looks more confused and “Beagle-ish”…maybe even a bit ditsy?
Splendid!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lookis like shes thinking or confused.
has anyone else noticed she looks like a phyicotic doll?
I love john howe! I got his authograph. Beautiful pic.
She’s just beautiful!!!
Well, she doesn’t look EXACTLY like Liv Tyler, she’s the character from the book, different from the movies.
This is really beautiful! Wow, it really looks like Arwen is described in the book.
i love the look she has in her eyes… her eyes are simply perfect!
Beautiful! It’s something in her eyes, I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s just…amazing.
This does look more like Luthien to me…oh well, it
it’s still beautiful**
She is very beautiful. Only reminds me more of a dark haired Galadriel then of Arwen. But still it’s great.
I love it.
Yeah, this is definitely Arwen. Finally. Thank you.
THIS is how I pictured Arwen!
she is so beautifull this was how i pictured Luthien tinuviel 🙂
Silmarilgirl I think that Aragorn when for first time met Arwen thought she was Luthien…or I’m wrong..
i think this is really cool compared to the real arwen. way prettier
Oh she’s got such a tragic wonder in her eyes…elves simply astound me,especially Arwen. Beautiful.
OOPS – hahaha, I just realized I’ve commented on this twice. Oh well. It’s still beautiful. SORRY GUYS.
Why is her head tilted like that? Yuck.
I love everything about this picture ogf Arwen except the lips which are too ovalish for my taste.
I think it’s G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!
I really, really don’t like this drawing. She looks cross-eyed for a start- elvencat; yes!.
Absolutly amazing! I’ve never seen such a great pic of Arwen!
Absolutely beautiful. It does remind me of Luthien a bit. I love her eyes
Really good Arwen and she remainds Luthien of some of you, because Arwen in facts reminds of Thinuviel
she is beautiful
THAT IS AMAZING! great job! beautiful!
I like the way you tilted the head to one side, it gives an afect of….. intelligance, and knowing.
Hehe, the random block is this image.
I LOVE IT!!!!!
Are Elves really supposed to be this distant?
Her eyes just kindof capture you, don’t they?
The first thing that hit me when I clicked this was her eyes. They stand out and bring in the blue of her..
dress and the darkness of her hair. It’s an amazing drawing and takes an amazing, dedicated artist to do this.
Yeah, that’s not Arwen,
Liv Tyler was the best Arwen ever! This pic is runner up ^_^
*stares at picture with utmost amazement* Wooooooowww…AMAZING! DANG! I WISH I COULD DRAW LIKE THAT!
WHOA!!! That’s really good!!!!!!
Absolutely PERFECT! Exactly how i imagined her!
WOW
She’s gorgeous!
YEAH! JENNIFER EHLE! GOOD ONE! PERFECT! Thank you Elena the Warrior!
pretty, pretty, pretty, PRETTY, PRETTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She looks like Luthien. Blue dress and everything. beautiful.
Oh, this is SOOOOOOOO much better than Liv Tyler!
this is a very stunning picture!! this is exactly how i pictured her.
Pretty! Looks like Arwen.
wow, I am stunned, that’s exactly what i thought she looked like! I wish I could draw like that!!
I think this picture looks like the real “Arwen” not the liv tyler Arwen.
Some eyes. And I wish we could see more of that lovely dress.
She looks very similar to Jennifer Connolly, lovely though.
beautiful and gorgeous don’t remotely describe this painting. breath-taking or speechless would be better.
john howe is really good. and she does kind of look like jennifer connely
This is so beautiful, and it is probably the real Arwen Tolkien imagined.
I LOVE her eyes! It’s a magnificent picture. Whoever painted it is AMAZING!
I love it! 🙂
And thus the beauty of luthien tinuvie is reborn
A mix between Liv Tyler and Jennifer Connelly? Beautiful nonetheless.
Very pretty! 🙂
It feels awkward to say it but… this looks like my cousin
