Where it came from
Deepwood Elder was released in 1999 as part of the Mercadian Masques expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, the set was inspired by themes of trade, deception, and the mercantile society of the plane of Mercadia. As a rare creature, the card reflects the set's mechanical focus on land-based utility and resource management, fitting into the aesthetic of the deep forest regions inhabited by the game's creature types.
The card features artwork by the renowned fantasy illustrators Greg and Tim Hildebrandt, better known as the Brothers Hildebrandt. The duo, famous for their iconic Lord of the Rings calendars and Star Wars posters, applied their distinct, painterly style to this piece, capturing a towering, arboreal figure. Their contribution to the set remains a notable example of their collaborative work during their tenure illustrating for Magic: The Gathering in the late 1990s.
