Provenance

Where it came from

Metalwork Colossus debuted in the 2016 Magic: The Gathering expansion set Kaladesh, a plane inspired by an aesthetic blend of steampunk and Indian art traditions known as 'aether-punk.' The card was designed to embody the set's central themes of invention and mechanical craftsmanship, representing the pinnacle of the grand-scale constructs built by the denizens of the city of Ghirapur to harness magical energy.

The illustration was crafted by artist Jaime Jones, who chose a perspective that emphasizes the construct's overwhelming size and intricate, clockwork-like modularity. Within the game's strategy, the card was received as a cornerstone of artifact-based decks, rewarding players for their ingenuity in deploying lower-cost machinery to power the arrival of this massive mechanical titan.
