I am not sure about this one... I know some of his works, I was on his exhibition here a few years ago, and I know he did several landscapes (ahem, or something that was supposed to be such) of "Mordor" etc... this could be, possibly, one of them, but I can't say for sure, also as the picture is not very big, I don't seem to recall it - maybe if it were bigger... but as I know he has been doing more illustrations of the same, so maybe this is another of his "Mordors"? Not sure whether it won't be called "Mordor" itself... don't know.
