The doors of Durin


The doors of Moria from the Lord of the Rings movies. The Doors of Durin, also known as the West-gate or West-door of Moria, were built into the Walls of Moria in the dark cliffs of the Silvertine, and formed the western entrance to the great Dwarven city of Khazad-dûm. When closed the doors could not be seen, except for the inlaid ithildin, which could only be seen in starlight and moonlight. When visible, the fine silver-like inlay showed the emblems and crown of Durin, the Tree of the High Elves, and the emblem of the House of Fëanor. Pencil drawing. © Morten Vollheim
