Summary

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description Tolkien's design for the cover of The Two Towers as a separate volume
Author or
copyright owner
J. R. R. Tolkien
Source (WP:NFCC#4) Original publication: used as cover of some later editions

Immediate source: https://onlineshop.oxfam.org.uk/the-two-towers/product/HD_301570767

Date of publication after 1954
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) The Two Towers
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) The image shows the two towers as Minas Morgul and Orthanc, agreeing with Tolkien's note at the end of The Fellowship of the Ring, but conflicting with other statements that he made. The illustration shows his design and his intention in 1954, and illuminates the discussion in the article.
Not replaceable with
free media because (WP:NFCC#1)
This exact image is named and discussed in the article.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) The image is small, used only here, and at the usual lamentable resolution.
Respect for
commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)
The design is one of several that have been used as the volume's cover, for many years now. The image is widely available on the web, including at the stated site, at far better resolution than the small scaled-down version provided here.
