Provenance

Where it came from

Samite Alchemist was released in 1995 as part of the Homelands expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, this set was themed around the gothic, insular plane of Ulgrotha, drawing inspiration from classic horror tropes and folklore to distinguish it from the high-fantasy tone of earlier sets.

The card illustration was created by artist Anson Maddocks, who was a frequent contributor during the game's early years. His depiction of the alchemist reflects the set's signature somber aesthetic, employing a muted palette and detailed linework characteristic of the mid-90s era. While the card is often remembered for its niche utility and the set's overall low power level in competitive play, it remains a notable example of the experimental art direction that defined the Homelands release.
