<small>??? Je n'ai aucun problème de visualisation...<br>"Evening", de Friedrich : http://palimpsest.lss.wisc.edu/~moeders/...ng1820.jpg : m'évoque la Lorien sans les Elfes, quelques Ages après le départ de Galadriel... Mais c'est surtout la composition par rapport au dessin de Tolkien :<br>http://www.arwen-undomiel.com/tolkien/images/Lothlorien_drawing.jpg qui m'a frappé. En même temps, Friedrich est un dieu, et beaucoup de ses oeuvres m'évoquent Arda. Mais il n'est pas un illustrateur de Tolkien... quoique :<br><blockquote>A few years ago I was visited in Oxford by a man whose name I have forgotten (though I believe he was well-known). He had been much struck by the curious way in which many old pictures seemed to him to have been designed to illustrate The Lord of the Rings long before its time. He brought one or two reproductions. I think he wanted at first simply to discover whether my imagination had fed on pictures, as it clearly had been by certain kinds of literature and languages. When it became obvious that, unless I was a liar, I had never seen the pictures before and was not well acquainted with pictorial An, he fell silent. I became aware that he was looking fixedly at me. Suddenly he said: 'Of course you don't suppose, do you, that you wrote all that book yourself?'<br>[Letters 328, To Carole Batten-Phelps (draft)]</blockquote>:)<p>Et puis :<br>http://www.myarcadia.8m.com/demos/lorien/lor2.jpg<br>et http://www.myarcadia.8m.com/demos/lorien/lorien.jpg<p>S. -- <small>surveiller le rôti au pruneaux... qu'il soit pas en train de "caraméliser" :)</small></small>
