Nice description of Nurn, Bill. Quite vivid. I never want to go there... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

The are only a few pictures by the Hildebrandt brothers which depicted the Rohirrim. I like the way they look, but Gahn-buri-Gahn is not quite what I picture. Tolkien did say he was squat, but that squat? Not in my mind, at least.

The other three pictures that include people of the Mark are Thédon, Éowyn and Wormtongue, Éowyn and the Nazgûl,Aragorn healing Éowyn, and Aragorn's Wedding.

Then there are two location shots of Rohan: Meduseld and Helm's Deep.

I think that does it for the Hildebrandts and Rohan. In the wedding picture, does not Aragorn's crown look ridiculous? In their defense, though, I don't know how a crown with wings on it could look anything but. I am really curious to see what they do about Aragorn's crown in the movie.
