Provenance

Where it came from

The Swamp card numbered 501 from the Modern Horizons 3 set was released by Wizards of the Coast in 2024 as part of the 'Full Art' cycle of basic lands. These lands were designed to showcase the aesthetic themes of the Eldrazi and the surreal landscape of the set's central narrative, moving away from traditional plane-specific geography to emphasize a cosmic, unsettling atmosphere.

The illustration was crafted by artist Nils Hamm, whose signature style often emphasizes organic, ethereal textures. By employing a monochromatic yet deeply layered color palette, Hamm aimed to evoke a sense of decay and otherworldly corruption characteristic of the set's Eldrazi-influenced theme. The card was well-received by collectors for its minimalist, high-contrast look that stands apart from the standard basic lands released in earlier sets.
