Where it came from
Verdant Catacombs was originally released in the 2009 set Zendikar as part of a cycle of land cards known as fetch lands, which allow players to search their deck for specific land types. The Modern Horizons 2 version, specifically collector number 440, was released in 2021 to provide players with a new art treatment for the card. This specific printing features an retro-frame aesthetic, designed to mimic the appearance of cards from the early days of Magic: The Gathering while utilizing the card mechanics standard in the modern era.
The artwork for this version was provided by illustrator Seb McKinnon, who is known for a distinctive, painterly, and often surreal style that deviates from standard fantasy illustration. In this piece, McKinnon captures a somber, atmospheric depiction of an overgrown burial site, emphasizing the card's theme of rot and natural decay. The design was well-received by the player base, particularly among collectors who appreciate the blend of nostalgic frame design with contemporary artistic interpretation.
