The Scroll of Isildur was a scroll made by Isildur himself during his short time in Minas Tirith after the War of the Last Alliance between T.A. 1 and 2. The scroll held Isildur's account of the gaining of the Ring from Sauron and described the appearance of an inscription around the Ring while it was still hot. The Scroll was stored for millennia in the vaults of that city. Gandalf started to believe that Bilbo Baggins' Magic Ring was the One. In T.A. 3017 he visited Minas Tirith and studied the scroll. Isildur's description was vital in helping Gandalf identify the Ring. He visited Frodo Baggins in Bag End and testing his ring in the fireplace, confirmed it as the One Ring of Sauron.

It's a door on a piece of furniture we saw at Costco. A lot of scrolls there, getting lost trying to count them all. :)
This is awesome looking. I want my headstone to be a scroll only I don't want to be buried so not really

A rubbing made from a stele later mounted decoratively on a scroll. It gives the various names, place of origin, and virtues of the military official Li Wei, who lived during the Former Qin (351-394). Thanks to Bruce Carpenter for the information.
Today the Jodo Mission of Hawaii saw the return of its hand-painted Japanese hanging scroll. At least 60 years old and the second largest such artifact in Hawaii, it was fully restored by skilled Japanese artisans under the direction of Japan Memorial Corporation's Tatsuji Maeda, who presented the restoration work to the Jodo Mission board this morning. This prized artwork will be carefully stored and only displayed in the temple maybe twice a year. I'd love to hear from anyone who knows more about these scrolls, it was certainly an education for us (and a substantial investment).

Detail of wrought iron railing and Ionic capital of the portico of the church of San Giorgio in Velabro, Rome (Italy)
'In Velabro' refers to the swampy ground where this church was first constructed in the 7th Century, when it was dedicated to St. Sebastian. It was re-dedicated in the 8th Century to the Greek saint, St.George, now also patron saint of England. This part of Rome was a Greek quarter at the time. The church has been reconstructed and added to many times, including extensive repairs following a street bomb in 1993, so I have no idea how old this railing is. But I assume the pillars of the portico, like this one, are the quoted age of the portico - 12th Century.

LONDON - PARIS - CATANIA - ROME - LONDON ----- DAY 8
Photo from the eighth day of our crazy long distance rail trip from home (London) to Sicily. We had had an unscheduled but happy first night stopover in Paris because our Eurostar train out of London was badly delayed due to 'a fatality [unexplained - perhaps fortunately] on the train'. We therefore missed our onward sleeper train connection to Rome, so spent our second day in Paris. We left Paris that evening, on the equivalent sleeper train service a day later. We reached Rome during the third day, where we changed to a daytime train for Catania, Sicily, arriving there the same evening. Our fourth day was our first full day in Sicily, and we spent this in the centre of Catania itself. We spent our fifth day on an excursion to Mount Etna run by GeoEtnaExplorer. We chose this tour company because the guides are geologists. Our particular tour went high up on the flanks on the summit, but not to the summit proper. For this sixth day, our final full day in Sicily, we took the bus from Catania (our base) to Siracusa, in search of Ancient Greek remains, while also getting distracted by other interesting sights, and some excellent ice cream, at various points in the day. But perhaps the most spectacular thing was the huge thunderstorm which hit us in the early part of the afternoon. The seventh day was the start of our homeward journey, for which we took our sixth train of the trip, from Catania and ending with an overnight stop in Rome. We spent the eighth day on a long walk through the heart of Rome, where we hadn't been back since I worked there briefly many years ago, before continuing our way home to London by catching a sleeper train that evening to Paris.
By the end of the whole holiday trip we had seen things and sites from ancient Greek time to modern, so the trip felt like a mini Grand Tour. Or given the rich mythology of Sicily, Etna and the Straits of Messina (Odysseus, the Cyclops, Scylla & Charybdis, etc.) perhaps our trip was like a modern mini Odyssey of our times. Odysseus took ten years to get home. It took us ten trains - but no monsters.

Three years ago, I created a scroll (www.flickr.com/photos/anselm23/8380803242/in/photolist-dL...) of Thomas Taylor's hymn to Jove or Jupiter. Now I've made one of the same poet's hymn to Mercury. It's nice to see the ways in which my drawing and calligraphy skills have improved.
