“Hobbits have a passion for mushrooms, surpassing even the greediest likings of Big People.” - The Fellowship of the Ring, Book 1, Chapter 5: A Conspiracy Unmasked
If you love the hobbits' fondness for mushrooms, then this Tolkien-inspired art print might just be the one for you. Hobbits are not typically interested in material things like wealth or delusions like power, but they are passionate about tasty fungi.
Here, we see the Gamgees, in the early days of starting their family, with just Elanor, little Frodo and baby Rose in tow. In studying Professor Tolkien's maps looking for good mushroom hunting grounds, it occurred to me that Bindbole Wood (sometimes spelt Bindbale) looked like prime ground for chanterelles, if the forest contained birch and pine trees. Of course, the hobbits would have had other names for these golden, apricot-scented treasures. Horns of Buckland, maybe? Or Wizard Hats? Perhaps this spot is a Gamgee heirloom, passed down in tacit secrecy from generation to generation. The relative proximity of the wood to Bagshot Row would make for a fine family outing, and as you can see, Rose has dressed the family in sympathetic colors in honor of the prized mushrooms.
By bringing home a museum-quality print of this original fine art painting, you'll not only get to enjoy a rare glimpse of the hobbit art of mushroom hunting any time you want, but also a lovely reminder to savor the small things in life. They're often the best!
