Does anyone have a link to Tolkien's painting "The Land of Pohja"?

Most of Tolkien's paintings and drawings can be found on the Internet, but "The Land of Pohja", made in 1914, is strangely abscent. The painting depicts the Moon and the Sun which are resting in the trees.

Thanks.

    You're right, there must be some copyright infringement....everywhere I looked where it may have once been up the photo was removed. I found this photobucket shot...not too clear.

    I can only find it in my rather extensive Tolkien library in the JRR Tolkien Artist and Illustrator book.

    If you have more time that me, you might try searching under Tolkien, Kalevala/Pohjola, Book of Ishness, Three Friezes...

    It's an unusual piece.....he cut along the diagonal line and when you fold it one way it's got purple/warm and the other is cold with icicles. I love Tolkien's own artwork.
