Provenance

Where it came from

Curator of Mysteries was originally released as part of the Amonkhet set in April 2017. Designed for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, this creature card features a Sphinx, a creature type central to the Egyptian-inspired mythology of the Amonkhet plane. The set was conceived to emphasize themes of trial, preparation for death, and the worship of the God-Pharaoh, with the Curator serving as a tactical card that utilizes the 'cycling' mechanic to filter through a player's deck.

The promotional version, numbered 49s, features distinct art by Christine Choi, who captures the ethereal and enigmatic nature of the Sphinx. Choi's illustration focuses on the creature's regal posture and the desert atmosphere of the plane, distancing the piece from more aggressive combat-focused designs. Within the community, the card is recognized for its efficient utility in limited play formats, and this specific promotional iteration is sought after by collectors for its unique aesthetic contribution to the Amonkhet release cycle.
