Fans of The Lord of the Rings are getting an absolutely killer new piece of artwork to add to their collections thanks to artist Brad Dunlop and Hero Complex Gallery.
Titled “Duel Atop Zirakzigil,” the print throws viewers straight into the legendary battle between Gandalf and the Balrog on the frozen peak of Zirakzigil, and it looks incredible.
Dunlop’s artwork captures the raw chaos and mythic scale of the fight with a fiery Balrog erupting across the composition while Gandalf stands his ground against the towering creature.
The contrast between the icy mountain setting and the molten flames ripping through the image gives the whole piece an intense energy that feels ripped right out of Tolkien’s world. Every inch of the poster is packed with wicked detail, from the glowing cracks running through the Balrog’s body to the snow-covered skulls scattered across the battlefield.
The poster is being released as a 24×36 limited edition print in two versions. The regular edition is limited to 125 pieces and priced at $80, while the metallic variant, also limited to 125 pieces, comes in at $135 and adds an extra layer of shine to the art.
If you’re a fan of Gandalf’s unforgettable showdown with the Balrog, this poster delivers a seriously cool tribute to one of the greatest fantasy battles ever put on screen.
