Carved into the living green stone of the Lonely Mountain’s flank, the grand front gate of Erebor stood like a monument, proclaiming the power and skill of the Dwarves. Impenetrable and proud, the great wall of hewn stone made a fortress of the mountainside, protecting the prosperous Dwarf city and the vast treasure of Thror that it held.

Peaceful and plentiful were the days of Durin’s folk in those times, before rumour of the wealth of the Dwarves crept north; before the sky grew dark; before the coming of the hot wind…

The scene from The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has been captured by Weta Workshop concept designer Nick Keller who was part of the core team of Weta designers who worked on the movie.

Nick Keller also painted Out of the Fire - Eagles' Rescue and you can see more of his work in our series of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Chronicles books about Art & Design and Creatures & Characters.
