Any sort of Middle Earth legendarium artwork is ok. It doesn't need to be made by or about hobbits.

Please give attribution to the original artist when possible.

It is not required, but if you know, please talk a bit about the scene in the image. What's going on? Who is in it? Why is it happening? Do you like it? Why?

Source with more illustrations: The Hobbit - The Tolkien Estate

‘Bilbo comes to the Huts of the Raft-elves’, July 1937. Tolkien was disappointed when this illustration was left out of the American edition as it was his favourite one, where he felt he had captured the scene most successfully.
