All stamps in the The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring 20th Anniversary stamp issue were based on original artworks by Sacha Lees. Three of these paintings have been issued as limited-edition art prints. These hand-signed prints include a cancelled stamp and limited-edition number. A great gift for any The Lord of the Rings fan, only 250 of each print have been produced.
After Frodo is stabbed, Arwen the elven princess gallops with him on her horse through a prairie and a wood to the safety of a river. The scene was filmed at the Shotover River which flows through the rocky gorge Skippers Canyon, near Queenstown.
