Description

Utulië'n aurë! Auta i lómë! Aurë entuluva!
"The night is passing! The day has come! Day will come again!"


(Elvish battle cry in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad. Before the battle, Fingon cried out ‘Auta i lómë!’, to which the warriors responded ‘Utulië’n aurë!’. When Turgon made his retreat, the Men under Húrin’s command held the rearguard. Turgon’s last sight of Húrin was of the Man surrounded by a pile of dead orcs shouting ‘Aurë entuluva!’)

This is a hand-painted t-shirt, as a contest price for :iconladyelleth: whose picture

placed 1st in the "Between the lines" contest of :iconthelotrclub:, :iconelves-of-tolkien: and :iconarda-inspired:.
The credit for the idea goes to *LadyElleth. Only the sword is my idea, and the elf in the design is supposed to be Fingon. The tengwar transcription of the quote was also provided by her.

Dear Mirach,
This painting is nothing short of awesome! I kindly ask your permission to use it for my bookcrossing labels. I don't know whether you are familiar with bookcrossing, but it is easy enough to find on the Internet; in short, free (as in "freedom") books are released somewhere for other people to find, read and release. The labels are used to register the books and keep track of where they have been found and read. All of it is for free (as in "free beer", this time), and your design would look awesome on my labels, if you allow it.
Whatever your decision, thanks for making this beautiful drawing!
