Summary
Drawn by J.R.R. Tolkien this crayon drawing illustrates the description of the great willow-tree in The Fellowship of the Ring, Book I, Chapter 6, The Old Forest:
- 'Enormous it looked, its sprawling branches going up like reaching arms with many long-fingered hands, its knotted and twisted trunk gaping in wide fissures that creaked faintly as the boughs moved.'
It was published in The J.R.R. Tolkien Calendar 1973 and 1974; a somewhat enlarged reproduction with a part of the picture excluded appeared in The Lord of the Rings 1977 Calendar.
