Ents

Where: Santiago de Compostela, Spain
When: 2011
Title: Ents

When I read Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, I imagined the Ents exactly as in the picture. Don't you?


"There are Ents and Ents, you know; or there are Ents and things that look like Ents but ain't, as you might say. I'll call you Merry and Pippin, if you please — nice names. For I am not going to tell you my name, not yet at any rate.' A queer half-knowing, half-humorous look came with a green flicker into his eyes. 'For one thing it would take a long while: my name is growing all the time, and I've lived a very long, long time; so my name is like a story. Real names tell you the story of the things they belong to in my language, in the Old Entish as you might say. It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it because we do not say anything in it unless it is worth taking a long time to say, and to listen to".
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers
