A double portrait of Gil-galad, a character from works of J.R.R. Tolkien. Originally b& w illustration to a polemics on Gil-galad' s parentage in the 20th jubilee issue of the Polish tolkienists almanac " Aiglos" , with a son of Fingon after The Silmarillion (top) and a son of Orodreth after The History of Middle-earth vol. XII (bottom). Heraldry in the back represents the fathers, while the emblem on the shield is Gil-galad' s own. Gil-galad' s honorific title Ereinion means " Scion of Kings" - he is is literally a scion of kings by the unsolved parentage question and by the given honorific title.
