Alan Lee Contact
Hello!
I'll try to keep this a brief as possible. I received a box set of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings as a child from my father. On the box itself was an illustration I now know is "The Battle of the Pelennor Fields" created by Alan Lee. I have been a fan of his work since receiving that gift.
Long story short, I am trying to buy a product that I would use this illustration on. Due to copyright, I of course cannot get companies to touch or work with the illustration. In order to, I have been trying to find a way to contact Mr. Lee and ask for his permission. Of course, this item would be for personal use, and I have no intention to profit off of his work. Problem being, I cannot find any way to contact him, or if he would be even remotely open to giving me permission. This is the closest link I can find to contacting Mr. Lee, as on the wiki it seems you personally reached out to him for permission to post his work on this wiki. I have considered reaching out to John Howe as they worked on the movies together, but thought against it as I believe it may be a bit disrespectful.
Any advice or a point in the right direction would be amazing.
And thank you for taking the time to read this.

Pearls
Excuse me, I added a mini list (of Valar less enthusiastic for inviting the elves to Valinor) that you removed correcting my contribution back [1] and I found another place for details about the proto-Battle of Powers [2]. However, you removed the sentence "Clams with pearls had however existed since the very beginning of the world." twice in 2020 from the page The Chaining of Melko, so I do not want to start an edit war, but I still feel that it is an important detail adding context to the creation of Silmarils and it fits exactly after mentioning animals that appeared. Was my language incorrect or are you really against putting this information there? Why? BartekChom (talk) 22:34, 19 August 2024 (UTC) BartekChom (talk) 22:34, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
