Where it came from
Righteousness was originally printed in Alpha and featured as a recurring enchantment throughout the early years of Magic: The Gathering. As a core set staple, its inclusion in Ninth Edition in 2005 marked a transitional era for the game, where the visual aesthetic shifted toward a more polished, digital-forward illustration style. This specific version, marked by its distinct set symbol and numbering, reflects the decision by Wizards of the Coast to keep foundational mechanics accessible to newer players during a period of significant growth in the game's global popularity.
The art for this iteration was created by Kev Walker, a prominent illustrator whose work has defined the visual identity of numerous Magic sets. Walker is known for his dynamic, high-contrast style that emphasizes physical presence and intensity. In illustrating Righteousness, he focused on capturing the immediate, protective power described in the card's mechanics, aiming to provide a clear, visceral representation of divine intervention that resonates with the traditional white mana aesthetic of early fantasy gaming.
