Where it came from
Released in October 2012 as part of the Return to Ravnica expansion for Magic: The Gathering, this card represents the standard Island basic land for the set. Ravnica is a fan-favorite plane depicted as a vast, planet-wide city, and the art direction for this block focused on the dense, vertical architecture and distinctive gothic-industrial aesthetic of the urban environment.
The artwork for this specific card, numbered 256, was created by the veteran illustrator John Avon. Known for his expansive landscapes, Avon captured the sprawling, multi-layered nature of Ravnica’s waterways integrated into the city’s complex infrastructure. Upon its release, the card was well-received by players for its atmospheric depiction of the city-plane, cementing Avon's reputation for providing some of the most iconic landscape illustrations in the game's history.
