Summary
[edit]Description | Detail of Tove Jansson's drawing of Smaug destroying Lake-town in a fiery assault, in a scene from J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit. Her work has been seen as "expressive", a style that went out of fashion as fantasy illustrations became more "realistic" in appearance. |

Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | This is the only example of her work illustrating the books of other authors in the article. It is used cropped and at poor resolution. |
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
It seems quite unlikely, not least because of the distance in time since this was published, its unfashionability, and because it is freely available at better resolution on the web, such as at the cited source. |
