Description

Ereinion Gil-galad, the sixth and last High King of the NoldorWhile in the published "Silmarillion" he is the son of Fingon, JRRT's latest idea was to make him the son of Orodreth. Illustration to a polemic about his parentage in the jubilee 20th issue of the almanac "Aiglos" (Polish language issue), with the son of Orodreth at the top and the son of Fingon mirrored in the bottom. Base for this was a mirrored image, colour added with filters in Photoshop. Done in Painter & Photoshop.

His epessë Ereinion means "Scion of Kings". By the way I recommend Tehta's humorous story which inspired me to make a double-portrait of the "son kings", not just a portrait of one parentage variation and also to give such title - The Scion of Kings by Tehta

I mean he could be both.

Born to Fingon but Raised by Orodreth after the Battle of Unnumbered Tears.

I mean it would not be the first character in Tolkien to be adopted
