Provenance

Where it came from

The Magic Mirror was released in 2019 as part of the Throne of Eldraine expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Drawing thematic inspiration from European folklore and Arthurian legend, the set was designed to evoke a high-fantasy fairy tale aesthetic. This artifact card, classified as a mythic rare, was created to represent the iconic, sentient looking-glass often featured in traditional fables, providing players with a powerful tool for card draw and late-game resource management.

The illustration was crafted by artist Anastasia Ovchinnikova, who utilized a lush, painterly style to depict the mirror's unsettling, reflective presence. Her design emphasizes the magical, otherworldly nature of the object, capturing the eerie intimacy of a mirror that holds secrets of the past. Upon its release, the card became a notable element in control-focused decks, praised for its unique mechanics that rewarded players for casting instant and sorcery spells throughout a game.
