Entitled Kirith Ungol~J.R.R Tolkien: Artist and Illustrator. Early Sketches.

Text reads on the Tower of Kirith Ungol:

And in that dreadful light Sam stood aghast; for now he could see the Tower of Kirith Ungol in all its strength. The horn that those could see who came up the pass from the west was but its topmost turret. Its eastern face stood up in four great tiers from a shelf in the mountain wall some 500 feet below. Its back was to the great cliff behind, and it was built in four pointed bastions of cunning masonry, with sides facing north-east and south-east, one above the other, diminishing as they went up, while about the lowest tier was a battlemented wall enclosing a narrow courtyard. Its gate open(ed) on the SE into a broad road. The wall at the outward(?)…was upon the brink of a precipice.
