On Rio Grande's webpage for Dominion: Alchemy they have this image:
Now i'm assuming it's from the back of the box, and all images on the back of the base game and expansions so far have been from Kingdom Card Images. So i'm assuming this is an image for a Kingdom Card.
But what could it be an image of?
It reminds me of the Courtyard a bit, but i'm really not sure what the building is supposed to be. Any Ideas?
Edit: Made image work and corrected spelling error

I don't know, but if it's better than a Silver, it's probably broken...

Fixed that for you.
I did a simulation, and I found if you buy one of these and a silver, regardless of the other 9 cards on the board and otherwise played Big Money, you can expect to get 4 Provinces in 3.1415926 turns.
However, if you find that buying two of these cards gets you a Province on turn 2, you need to find better opponents.

It actually does have a cloister/monastery sort of look to it if it was something bigger like a chuch the picture wouldn't be from this angle.
As to what it does-who knows mabye there will be farm tiles include with which to surround it.

Remember the Baron from Intrigue?
It's his house!
Alternatively, it could be the Duke's house as he is showing the world to us ...
If it's the Baron's house then +1 card, if you have a Baron and discard him, +4 coins, if you don't discard a Baron, gain a Baron.
For the Duke's house, +1 VP per Duke ...

I was thinking maybe:
Cloister/Monastary
Action Victory
Trash up to two cards. If one or more of the trashed cards were Curse(s), +1 Action OR +1 Coin.
1 VP

Holy Bakery

Choose one:
On your next turn, play this as a Market card (sell).

Trash this card to discard any number of copper in your hand (remove leaven).

Funny thing is I just played Carc for the first time last weekend.
And immediately after that I was pointing out cities, farms, and roads to annoy my son while he was playing Black & White on the computer.

Purely speculation, but could it be a Vineyard or Orchard or something? I see all of the trees lined up and it makes me think of a Vineyard. Although I do like the monastery idea.

What about something like:
Yet Another Freaking Village
Cost: 3 Coins + 1 Potion
+1 Card
+2 Actions
Gain one spoiler about the set's design and put it into your thread.

I say that that is a Winery (or a Vineyard with the top of the grapes vines in a row in front of the building). The tower to the left is for temperature control during the fermenting process before they had AC. I forget the proper name for it.

I have to piggy back on that one!
Winery
+1 Buy
-1 action for all other players if you discard one card.
(unless you have a moat in your hand or otherwise)
Great fun was had by all...and the day was wasted away in drunken debauchery!

If you just look at the name of the image, it is crystal clear: Game_356_imageThumbnail1.jpg
It is obviously an action card that gives you +356 games and +1 thumbnail.

Assuming the Racoon has some inside knowledge and is not simply making things up, this would suggest that Potions are a new card type for this exapnsion. Like Durations for Seaside and cards that combine types for Intrigue.
