This print showcases a stunning medieval illustration from the Livre des Merveilles du Monde, created by the Boucicaut Master and his workshop. The artwork, titled "Fishing for pearls and gathering turquoises in the Gaindu Province" transports us to an era of exploration and discovery. Measuring 42x29.8 cm, this tempera on vellum masterpiece depicts a scene along the Silk Road in Asia. It presents a vivid portrayal of fishermen diligently casting their nets into a river while others gather precious turquoise gemstones from its depths. The vibrant blue-green hues of these prized minerals add an enchanting touch to the composition. The Livre des Merveilles du Monde serves as a recorded account of various travels in the Orient, including those of renowned explorers like Marco Polo and Rustichello da Pisa. Through this illuminated manuscript, we are transported back in time to witness their awe-inspiring journeys across distant lands. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at the intricate details that bring it to life – from the flowing river waters to the majestic bridge spanning across it.
