Provenance

Where it came from

Released in May 2008 as part of the Magic: The Gathering expansion set Shadowmoor, this Plains card captures the eerie, twilight aesthetic characteristic of the plane of Lorwyn’s transformation. The set was designed to explore a world shifting from a bright, idyllic landscape into a dark, gothic realm of eternal dusk, a narrative theme that heavily influenced the somber and distorted art direction of the basic land cycle.

The artwork for this specific card was commissioned from artist Richard Kane Ferguson. Known for his distinctive, painterly style and swirling, dreamlike compositions, Ferguson was tasked with reflecting the twisted nature of the Shadowmoor environment. His contribution was received by players as a poignant visual departure from the traditional, serene depictions of Plains, effectively grounding the expansion's gothic tone within the game’s core resource system.
