Provenance

Where it came from

City of Brass was originally introduced in the Arabian Nights expansion in 1993, the first set released for the Magic: The Gathering card game. Designed by Richard Garfield, the card was intended to reflect the flavor of Middle Eastern folklore, specifically referencing the mythic city of Irem of the Pillars. Its mechanics, which allow for any color of mana at the cost of one life, established it as a foundational card for multicolored deck strategies due to its versatile and reliable mana fixing.

The version from the 1995 Chronicles set utilizes the original artwork by Jeff A. Menges, which captures the distinct, sand-swept aesthetic of early fantasy illustration. Chronicles was a compilation set designed to reprint popular cards from the game's initial expansions, making iconic and hard-to-find cards more accessible to a growing player base. While the set was met with mixed reactions from collectors at the time due to its impact on the secondary market value of original prints, it remains a significant chapter in the history of the game's physical distribution.
