Down From the Mountain

This painting depicts Aragorn receiving Frodo and Sam when they were rescued from Mount Doom. It's a bit busy, but I learned a lot while making it.  I have always wished that Tolkien had given us more details of what is one of the most dramatic moments of the epic.

Feel free to give Boromir the St. Sebastian treatment any time :-)

I was thinking of Michelangelo's Deposition though.



The monk is St. Francis and ink_gypsy made it for my birthday last month. I love it :-)

Oh yes, I recognize this work now! It does resemble.

I thought that avatar might be St. Francis! That's just so wonderful! :)
