The Swanland Effect

Gorgeous! Those cheekbones! Oh be still my beating heart! (in my best impression of a ‘swooning maiden’) but seriously - beautiful portrait! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰❤️🥰❤️👏👏👏

No need to be serious. I did tell ya' to bring smelling salts!  ;-)

There was a point several version in when I recognized that some of one of my own characters was overlapping my navigation here.  I almost kept his as a study.  But .. Elendil is who I went seeking and so Elendil this is.

He would have to be "all that!"  In Tolkien's lore these are the 'First Men' of Middle Earth, they were made of sterner stuff.  Yet, in fiction or non, leaders . . true leaders . . radiate a bearing of leadership. This a quality one recognizes instantly but finds hard to put into words. It's the extra "oomph" that makes this portrait work.

If I posted this under the title "Alexander the Great" who would challenge that?  If all you have to go on is a portrait then that portrait better convey the character behind the legendary deeds. 

Would you fight side by side with and risk everything for this guy .. folowwing his leadership without question?   

. . .

[ page ii ]

When the stakes were "all or nothing" as they were in Tolkien's tales, one would have needed to do just that.  

Not leadership by force and dictate but leadership by example and self-sacrifice.  Where is THAT today? 

For reference, this fellow up above is Aragorn's ancestor.

"... the old that is strong does not wither,"

No it does not!        

“Out of the Great Sea to Middle-earth I am come.
In this place I will abide, through my heirs, unto the ending of the world.”

Elendil, in Quenya: “Elf-friend” was a Man of Númenor,  the father of Isildur and Anárion, who led the survivors of its Downfall to the shores of Middle-earth where they founded two Realms in Exile, Arnor and Gondor. 

Elendil became the first King of both realms holding the title of High King of the Dúnedain, making him supreme overlord of all exiled Númenóreans in the lands east of the Great Sea. Elendil established strong regimes there and created the great alliance that put an end to Sauron's power for over a thousand years. 

His bloodline and spirited leadership survived in the Dúnedain of the North and South of Middle-earth, that would in turn sire the brave and heroic Men that would help bring a final end to Sauron in the War of the Ring.
