Provenance

Where it came from

The Swamp card from the Magic 2011 core set, numbered 241, was released in July 2010 as a fundamental component of the game's annual base set refresh. Core sets during this era were designed to be accessible to new players while reintroducing iconic mechanics and themes to the wider card pool. This specific iteration served as a functional staple, providing the necessary mana resource for black-aligned decks within the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem.

The artwork for this card was created by artist Jung Park, who was commissioned to provide a fresh visual identity for the basic land cycles in the 2011 set. Park opted for a moody, atmospheric depiction of a desolate wetland, focusing on deep, saturated tones to evoke the traditional aesthetic of the swamp color identity. The design was well-received by the player base for its clean, high-fantasy composition and its clarity during competitive play.
