Provenance

Where it came from

The Plains card, collector number 279, was released in the 2018 Commander Anthology Volume II set. This collection was curated by Wizards of the Coast to provide players with access to four popular preconstructed Commander decks from previous years, serving as a comprehensive retrospective of the format's growth and accessibility.

The artwork for this specific land was created by John Avon, a prolific and celebrated illustrator within the Magic: The Gathering community. Known for his atmospheric landscapes, Avon designed this Plains to evoke a sense of serene, expansive beauty, balancing the functional requirements of a basic land card with the immersive, high-fantasy aesthetic that has defined the game's visual identity for decades.
