Yes, Bilbo's portrait *does* capture a good bit of his humour--and his sense of mischief. And I love the clear-eyed look of Frodo. He looks like the character storytellers have in their minds when they introduce a sentence, "and then our young hero, coming to the castle, and casting fear aside, boldly knocked upon the door," and so forth. He looks every bit a "young hero".
