This is extremely subjective and depends on what one would consider iconic.

However, assuming you are looking for new art to go on a playmat for this year, there is but one choice:

The art on Holy Grail is the icon for Artifacts, and I don't think anything else appears both as the art on a card and the icon on other cards, so Holy Grail is clearly the most iconic.  :P

How are you defining iconic?

1. Using art as icons (as in Aggie’s statement) is much different from
2. liking the art on a card (maybe for Redemption swag), which is different from
3. the art being recognizable, which is also different than
4. being identifiable as Redemption art (such as with GOYS, Michael (RoJ), etc)

I could name quite a few cards other than what’s on your list, but they range widely between these categories, so knowing what definition fits best would be helpful.  Otherwise, a description of the project could similarly provide additional context.

Thanks!

Iconic as in when you think of Redemption certain images come to mind.

That’s my kind of humor. 😉

And Kye is correct. It is a playmat.

And Kye is correct. It is a playmat.

Here are options I have come across that I think would get the most interest as a playmat:

Angelic Warrior
Babel
Creation of the World
Grapes of Wrath
Leviathan (FoM)
Que
Ride on Victoriously (flip concept)
Saul/Paul (flip concept)
Sheol
The Rainbow
The Wages of Sin

The list above is not ranked, but alphabetical.  I included consideration for the cards in your original post as well, but certainly could have missed a good option.  Some of them just seemed uneventful.  For instance, Holy Grail made my initial list of “iconic”, but I don’t see myself ever buying a playmat that just has grail on it.

Fairly serious about Que because of his following.

I think a “flip concept” is a good idea, but might be challenging with the art since Redemption Cards are created in portrait and the playmat would be landscape.  However, seems like it could work, especially with something like Ride on Victoriously.

Considering my cousin created the Leviathan art, I am all for that one!
