This portrait of Legolas from The Lord of the Rings is entitled Gimli’s Gift. Movie fans don’t understand the title, but book fans do. In the book, Gimli’s gift to Legolas is an introduction to the beautiful crystal caves of the dwarf realms, and a greater understanding of dwarf culture.

This piece was created to be a print for Ringcon, an officially licensed, annual Lord of the Rings-themed convention in Germany.

The original watercolor was not available for scanning, so this was shot from the print.
