Alan Lee Signed The Hobbit Sketchbook First Edition Harpercollins 2019 Tolkien

The Hobbit Sketchbook Signed by Alan Lee to title page. First edition, first print, with the Signed by the author sticker to front of the jacket. The book is new and unread with no marks, fine condition. Alan Lee is one of the most respected illustrators of Tolkien works. His illustrations have featured in many editions of Tolkien books, and his art helped to inspire Peter Jackson, who hired Lee to work as a concept artist on The Lord of The Rings and Hobbit films, earning Lee an Academy Award along the way. Jackson stated of Lee "His art captured what I hoped to capture with the films". The Hobbit Sketchbook is filled with stunning artworks and sketches throughout, featuring early concept pieces and brand new sketches created for this book, all beautifully presented with additional text by the artist providing background and insights into his thought process. Will be carefully bubble wrapped and packed in strong cardboard packaging. Please see my other listings for more signed Alan Lee books.
