EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases Qubilai Khan, the first emperor of the Mongolian Yuan dynasty, engaging in a unique form of commerce. In this exquisite artwork from 1410 by the Boucicaut Master and his workshop, we witness Qubilai Khan using miniature murier bark coins to pay for his purchases. These rare coins were taken directly from Marco Polo's renowned book "The Book of Wonders" or "Il Milione" which documented Polo's astonishing travels. Qubilai Khan is depicted with great regality as he exchanges these precious bark coins for goods. His majestic presence is enhanced by the intricate illumination surrounding him, highlighting his status as a powerful ruler. The image captures an important moment in history when trade and barter played a significant role in economic transactions. This photograph not only offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of medieval commerce but also serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Marco Polo's writings. It reminds us that knowledge and cultural exchange have always been essential drivers of progress throughout human history. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us appreciate how it seamlessly combines artistry and historical significance, allowing us to connect with past civilizations and their vibrant traditions.
