Dunno generally, but when I think of MtG artwork, stuff like this pops up:
>Copper-leaf angel
>Alpha Dark Ritual
>Susan van Camp's Hymn to Tourach
>Greg Staple's (hue) Serra Angel
>All of Rebecca Guay's artwork
>Mirage lands

I think the art in OPs card selection are remembered more so because the card's effect is iconic and/or somewhat broken and happens to have good art to accompany it.

They are not necessarily iconic because the art is good.

Art like Necropotence is pretty evocative, even if it doesn't necessarily relate to how the card works or anything.

For me?
