"Hail the victorious dead!" And yet, what is the price of glory, and for those who survive us?



Inspired by the beautiful writing of Tolkien, artisans and enthusiastic re-enactors came together to create this scene, pulling aesthetics from both fantasy and history.

Hand painted banners and shields, sewn garments, and constructed funeral biers were all a part of the creation process, while the final images were stitched together to preserve detail. Colours and lighting were made to evoke the feeling of paintings and traditional art.
