Our first artist made his Magic-al return a bit ago during 2018’s Dominaria, and has since appeared regularly in Magic’s expansions to reimagine and re-envision the Multiverse as only he could. Thousand Year Storm and Privileged Position by Donato Giancola. Get your shoes on folks, we’ve a lot of ground to cover: it’s the Double Masters 2022 Grand Art Tour! Thousand-Year Storm and Privileged Position by Donato Giancola
This article will go full Grand Art Tour, and lean in on our theme of twos, exhibiting double features of outstanding illustrations from regular Magic masters alongside a few artists we haven’t seen for awhile. Well in true Double Masters fashion, this newest iteration has just under 100 new pieces of art, so we’ll need some more room to expound on some of the standout works. My 2020 article covering the set wasn’t quite a Grand Art Tour, grabbing six of my favorite pieces from the 50 new works released during that set. Would we see these same folks return again? Would even more artists come back to the game? The possibilities were endless. When Double Masters 2022 was announced nearly a year ago in August 2021, my wheels immediately started spinning. But perhaps more importantly, it heralded the return of some of Magic’s most legendary and well-loved artists from years gone by.
The first set was released during the pandemic summer in 2020, featuring two rares and two foils per pack for the first time. It hardly feels like it’s been two years since I’ve written about Double Masters.
