White Wizard & The White City - Original Ink & Watercolor Painting (5x7)

This is a handcrafted original watercolor and ink painting depicting Gandalf the White approaching the majestic city of Minas Tirith, riding upon the back of Shadowfax, the white king of horses. It’s a unique piece of art inspired by this pivotal moment in The Return of the King, a symbol of hope and timely aid arriving amidst the gathering darkness. This piece captures the grandeur of Minas Tirith, built into the mountainside with its towering walls and intricate architecture, as Gandalf and Shadowfax approach across the Pelennor Fields.

The initial watercolor wash creates the atmospheric tones of the landscape, with perhaps a hint of the impending battle, while the ink sketches add intricate details, highlighting the majestic forms of Gandalf and Shadowfax and the imposing structure of the White City. This painting evokes a sense of anticipation and the arrival of hope, inviting the viewer to recall this iconic scene from The Lord of the Rings and the crucial role Gandalf plays in the struggle against Sauron.
