A site collecting Tove Jansson's illustrations for The Hobbit. How cool is that? I wish she'd done Earthsea too.

Oh my. How utterly lovely.

I think I like The Bridge to Rivendell best.

That's particularly beautiful, and particularly Jansson (especially Moominsummer Madness). I love her horses, they look almost edible.

I haven't read all the Moomin books, and I can't remember if I've read that one. (I only have Tales from Moomin Valley and Comet in Moominland.)

I also liked the picture of Lake Town.

Moominsummer Madness is the one where the valley gets flooded, and the family end up living in a theatre that's floating down the river. Wonderful.

BTW, her illustrations to Alice in Wonderland on that site too.
