Middle‑earth maps and art prints by Rinus

I create detailed Middle‑earth maps and Tolkien-inspired art prints, shaped by a lifelong love of The Lord of the Rings and related stories. They are made for readers, collectors, and anyone who wants to spend a little more time in Middle‑earth.

The map series

Maps made for wandering

I wanted maps of Middle‑earth that did more than show where places are. Tolkien’s writing makes the lands feel vivid and tangible, and I wanted the maps to come closer to that richness.

The book

A map book for reading Tolkien

The Maps of Middle‑earth gathers the main maps into a sewn hardcover book, made to keep nearby while reading rather than hanging on the wall.

The prints

Printed in my studio in Sweden

The prints are made in my studio in Sweden, with each part of the production process handled by me. Limited Editions are signed and numbered, while selected Regular Editions offer a more accessible way to own the Middle‑earth and Beleriand maps.

The artist

Made by Rinus

I create the artwork myself, without AI or machine learning, using years of painting, photography, digital art, and matte painting.
