Provenance

Where it came from

Pyknite was released in 1995 as part of the Ice Age expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, this set introduced a thematic focus on a world locked in a glacial era, moving away from the high fantasy tropes of the base game to explore themes of survival and elemental cold.

The artwork for the card was provided by Margaret Organ-Kean, who contributed several pieces to the set during a formative period for the game's aesthetic. Her design for the creature aimed to reflect the rugged, primitive nature of the inhabitants of Dominaria’s frozen continents, balancing the game's need for functional card mechanics with a distinct visual identity rooted in the harsh landscapes of the Ice Age narrative.
