File:J.R.R. Tolkien - Glaurung sets forth to seek Turin.jpg
Original file (1,327 × 967 pixels, file size: 293 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)
This painting by J.R.R. Tolkien, dated 1927, was published in The Silmarillion Calendar 1978. The title is in Old English letters, which J. R. R. Tolkien frequently used when writing in a formal style. At the time of the painting the name of the Father of Dragons was Glo'rund, not Glaurung, and for the reproduction in the Calendar I rewrote the Old English lettering in precisely similar form in order to introduce the name by which the Dragon is known in the published work. The entrance to Nargothrond is here seen as a single arch, unlike the triple doors seen in other drawings.
