✨♀️Tolkien Women series♀️✨ - Erendis for Women's History Month, a 2016 graphite portrait and the 2018 digitally colourized version. This started being just a Preraphaelite Rossetti study, but ended up joining the ranks as Erendis Tar-Elestirnë of Númenor. This is also my main (and simple) foray into the world of digital colouring to date, and, although I prefer colouring as traditional art, I'd really like to delve into it more!
And apart from Erendis, here are all the women (to date) in this series of Tolkien women portraits, often inspired by Preraphaelite portraits: Artanis Nerwen (Galadriel), Lúthien, Bëorian wise-woman, Morwen, Nienor
"All Day Everyday Therapist Mother Maid Nymph Then a Virgin Nurse Then a Servant Just an Appendage Live to Attend Him So That He Never Lifts a Finger
24/7 Baby Machine So He Can Live Out His Picket Fence Dream It’s Not an Act of Love If You Make Her You Make Me Do Too Much Labour (...) If Our Love Ends Would That Be a Bad Thing And the Silence Haunts Our Bed Chamber You Make Me Do Too Much Labour"  (Paris Paloma - this is a very fitting song for so many women, unfortunately :S)
Erendis is a character that I find really interesting, especially because she is one of the few women in Tolkien's universe who makes an openly feminist speech (to her daughter Ancalimë) - even though she's not that well-seen in the narrative, and often in the fandom itself as well 😬 She gets called 'bitter' and 'resentful' and the like, while ignoring her incredibly unhappy and non-fulfilling role as Aldarion's wife. 
This vision many people have of this kind of female character made me think of Preraphaelism and especially Rossetti's portraits. While I absolutely love the art style, Preraphaelites are well known for drawing either passive women (dead, asleep, trapped, waiting to be rescued, dying) or intense 'femme fatales' who frighten and allure men at the same time.  I see Erendis as having quite an intense presence, in the manner of many of Rossetti's portraits of Jane Morris, the kind of intense presence, in the manner of many of Rossetti's portraits of Jane Morris, the kind of woman who gets called 'femme fatale' (and worse) because of her assertiveness, intensity and intelligence. These portraits, showing the woman so serene and intense and 'alluring' often from the pov of men, also makes me think of sadness, anger and frustration, often pretty well hidden and yet present. And she's holding an apple instead of a pomegranate, yes, make of the symbolism what you will xD Maybe Erendis did eat from the Tree of Wisdom xD

Alfred William Hunt
Alfred William Hunt was born #onthisday in 1830. Hunt studied Classics at Corpus Christi College at the University of Oxford, and later pursued an artistic career in association with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. As a result of this influence, his landscape paintings show remarkable attention detail, with the careful rendering of grass, leaves and trees in each.
Here are a small selection of Hunt's landscape paintings from our collection.
