In The Lord Of The Rings books, author J.R.R. Tolkien’s describes Bag End, the hobbit-hole home of Bilbo Baggins and his kin. The description inspired Chris Guise to recreate a miniature Bonsai landscape version of Bilbo’s home, and the end result is beautiful!
“A large hill (The Hill) lay to the north, and under its southern slopes Bilbo’s father Bungo built the luxurious smial Bag End above the lane of Bagshot Row. This is the home of Bilbo Baggins, Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee, where both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings begin and end.”
Head over Bonsai Empire to read how Guise created the bonsai and to see more photos, including those that show the bonsai landscape in progress. You can also check out Guise’s Flickr page.
