Provenance

Where it came from

Snapping Drake was released in 1997 as part of the Portal set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This set was designed specifically as an introductory product to simplify the complex mechanics of the game for new players, featuring simplified rules and a more accessible gameplay experience compared to the standard releases of the time.

The card features artwork by Christopher Rush, one of the most iconic illustrators in Magic history, known for his work on the game's earliest sets, including the original Black Lotus. His depiction of the creature leans into a classic high-fantasy aesthetic, providing a clear visual representation of the blue-aligned flying beast that served as a staple common creature during the Portal era.
