Provenance

Where it came from

Sapling of Colfenor was released in 2008 as part of the Eventide set, the second expansion in the Shadowmoor block for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This set was designed to explore a world caught in an eternal twilight, characterized by its focus on hybrid mana costs and themes of decay and rebirth. The card represents a pivotal character in the lore of the plane, serving as a manifestation of the forest’s resilience amidst the gloom.

The card’s artwork was rendered by John Avon, a prominent landscape specialist in the Magic art community. Known for his evocative land illustrations, Avon was tasked with capturing the dual nature of the Sapling—both organic and otherworldly. The illustration reflects the set's broader aesthetic of eerie, atmospheric lighting and gothic influence, and it remains well-regarded by collectors for the artist's signature use of ethereal, glowing textures.
