Anatar, Sauron in his fair form. The same shape he used when tricking the Elves to forge three great rings of power.

The Grey Havens

"The grey rain curtain of the world rolls back and all turns to silver glass.
And then you see it! White shores and beyond! A far green country under a swift sunrise!"

I'm a HUGE fan of John Howe's work:

Yeah,

I could see the movies like 20 times and read the books like 10 times and do you know what? They never get old and I still manage to enjoy them every time! :)

Isildur's Bane

http://www.council-of-elrond.com/castdb/isildur/isildur3.jpg

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring,
Renewed shall be blade that was broken:
The crownless again shall be king!

I like Tolkien's own drawings/illustrations the most.

Such as Rivendell:

There is a nice book on the subject available:
