Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Show the visual style of Yuhimov's Middle-earth illustrations for readers from around the world who have not seen the 1993 Russian edition of The Lord of the Rings, enabling them to evaluate for themselves how appropriate the Russian Orthodox Icon-style of the work may be for Tolkien's novel, and how fitting the scholarly comments in the text are.
