Where it came from
Summons of Saruman was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering 'Tales of Middle-earth' Commander set, a collaboration between Wizards of the Coast and Middle-earth Enterprises. This set was designed to integrate the lore of J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium into the mechanics of the game, offering players thematic spells that mirror iconic moments from the War of the Ring.
The card’s artwork was provided by Bulgarian illustrator Svetlin Velinov, a long-time contributor to the Magic: The Gathering franchise. Velinov sought to capture the manipulative and grand nature of Saruman the White within his tower of Orthanc, using high-contrast lighting to evoke the corruption of the wizard as he casts his dark enchantments. The piece was well-received by fans for its cinematic portrayal of Saruman’s political and magical influence over the narrative.
