Goblin Feet: The Gnomes with Lanterns
A red-bearded gnome leads a brightly dressed procession through a dark woodland lane. Small lanterns shine above the walkers while beetles loom beside their path. Goble illustrates the approaching gnomes in Tolkien’s Goblin Feet, printed in Dora Owen’s Book of Fairy Poetry.
