Provenance

Where it came from

Released in April 2010 as part of the Rise of the Eldrazi expansion, this Plains card represents the culmination of the three-set Zendikar block. The set introduced players to the Eldrazi, ancient and incomprehensible beings that threatened to consume the plane, shifting the visual tone of the game from traditional fantasy adventure to a landscape marked by cosmic dread and massive geological upheaval.

The artwork was commissioned from John Avon, a legendary illustrator in the Magic: The Gathering community known for his sweeping, cinematic landscapes. For this particular card, Avon crafted a wide-angle view of the Zendikar horizon that emphasizes the raw, untamed beauty of the world before the Eldrazi presence fully took hold. His work on this set is frequently cited by collectors for its exceptional light-play and depth, helping to define the aesthetic identity of the Zendikar block as one of the most visually beloved eras in the game's history.
