Dark Horse Comics will release a 200-page collection of contemporary artist Donato Giancola’s paintings and drawings illustrating J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings saga.
Middle-Earth: Journeys in Myth and Legend brings together Giancola’s lifelong illumination of Tolkien’s words, which spans his entire career from the late 1980s to today. Giancola specializes in narrative realism in fantasy and science fiction art, and has illustrated cards for Magic: The Gathering, and created numerous popular book covers. In 2015, he illustrated George RR Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire calendar. He has won multiple Hugo Awards for Best Professional Artist, and the World Fantasy Award in 2004 for Best Artist.
The 200-page 10” x 14” hardcover has an MSRP of $39.99. Release is set for January 30.
