Provenance

Where it came from

Open the Graves was released as part of the Core Set 2019 expansion for Magic: The Gathering, specifically featuring as a promotional card for the set's release window. Designed as a rare black enchantment, its mechanics reflect the gothic horror themes inherent to necromancy within the game, rewarding players for sacrificing or losing their creatures by creating Zombie tokens.

The card features artwork by Vincent Proce, an established illustrator known for his dynamic and atmospheric contributions to the Magic: The Gathering universe. Proce’s design focuses on the visceral imagery of unearthing the restless dead, utilizing deep shadows and a muted, ominous color palette to effectively communicate the card's function as a recurring engine for battlefield presence.
