Provenance

Where it came from

The Granite Gargoyle was originally printed as a rare creature card in the 1994 Magic: The Gathering 30th Anniversary Edition, a commemorative set designed to celebrate three decades of the trading card game. This release sought to honor the game's roots by reprinting iconic cards from early sets using the original aesthetic, allowing modern collectors to acquire updated versions of vintage staples that defined the game's early strategic landscape.

The card features the distinct, brooding illustration of Christopher Rush, a foundational artist for the game whose work is synonymous with its early visual identity. Rush, celebrated for his evocative and atmospheric approach, imbued the gargoyle with a sense of classical stony durability that has made the artwork a fixture in the history of fantasy card illustration and a touchstone for players who grew up with the game's initial releases.
