Ted Nasmith art style. This is an illustration depicting a scene at the base of a sheer rock face. The central focus is a large, glowing archway etched into the stone, which is the Doors of Durin, the West-gate of Moria. The design is made of luminous white lines. The arch is flanked by two stylized pillars in the form of trees whose branches intertwine at the top. Following the curve of the arch is an inscription in Elvish script. Within the arch are several symbols: at the top center is a hammer and anvil beneath a crown, with seven five-pointed stars above it. Below this, in the center of the doorway, is a single, larger eight-pointed star, the Star of the House of Fëanor. The ground before the rock face consists of uneven, cracked flagstones, and in the foreground is a dark body of water that reflects the glowing door's design. The scene is framed on the upper left by dark, gnarled tree branches and leaves. Four characters are present. On the right, seated on a rock, is the wizard Gandalf. He wears a tall, pointed, dark blue hat and matching robes. He has a long white beard and hair and rests his chin on his hand. A dark wooden staff lies on the ground before him. To the left of the glowing door are three hobbits. The hobbit Frodo Baggins is seated on the ground with a pack beside him, looking up at the door. He wears a green hooded cloak. Behind him stand two other hobbits, also in green hooded cloaks and tunics with belts. All three hobbits are barefoot.
