Provenance

Where it came from

The Forest card, collector number 278, was released in 2017 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set Ixalan. This expansion drew heavy inspiration from the Age of Discovery and Mesoamerican mythology, focusing on themes of exploration, pirates, and dinosaurs. The art direction for Ixalan aimed to capture a vibrant, untamed tropical environment, contrasting the lush, wild landscapes of the plane with the distinct cultural aesthetics of its inhabitant factions.

This specific land card features an illustration by Adam Paquette, a recurring artist in the Magic: The Gathering universe known for his expansive, atmospheric landscapes. Paquette designed this piece to emphasize the verticality and prehistoric density of the Ixalan jungles, utilizing sweeping vistas and deep, saturated greens to evoke a sense of scale. The card was widely received as a strong addition to the set's aesthetic, successfully grounding the gameplay experience in the narrative's lush, hazardous world.
