Brushes of Middle-Earth: First Print Collection - Art by Justin Falkenstein

Step into a world where fantasy meets fine art. Brushes of Middle-Earth: First Collection is the debut series of paintings that reimagine the timeless landscapes and legends of J.R.R. Tolkien’s world through the swirling, emotive brushwork of Vincent van Gogh.

From the rolling hills of the Shire to the towering majesty of Erebor, from the golden glow of Lothlórien to the dread of Minas Morgul, each piece in this collection captures not only a place but a feeling—nostalgia, wonder, awe, and the unshakable sense of myth that Tolkien wove into every corner of Middle-earth.

Created by artist Justin Falkenstein, this collection was born from a personal journey of healing, inspiration, and storytelling. What began as an experiment has grown into a body of work that has captivated fans of both Tolkien and Van Gogh alike.

• Over 20 paintings from artist Justin Falkenstein's First Collection
• Cover Material: Coated silk, white 150-200gsm (100lb text) with a matte laminated hardcover.
