EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, as depicted in the artwork "Ms Fr 2810 f. 2v, Kublai Khan greeted by the brothers Polo" from the Livre des Merveilles du Monde. Created between 1410-12 by an anonymous French artist, this tempera on vellum painting showcases a scene of great cultural exchange and exploration. In the image, we witness Marco Polo and his brother kneeling before Kublai Khan, the powerful Mongol emperor of China. The Polos were renowned Italian travelers who embarked on an extraordinary journey along the Silk Road during the 13th and 14th centuries. Their adventures are chronicled in their famous book "Description of the World" also known as "Il Milione". The vibrant colors and intricate details bring to life this historic encounter between East and West. The exotic landscape serves as a backdrop for this meeting of two worlds – Europe and Asia – symbolizing both curiosity and diplomacy. Through this artwork, we are transported back to a time when travel was arduous but rewarding, when cultures collided, fostering new connections and understanding. It reminds us of humanity's innate desire to explore beyond our own borders. This remarkable piece is housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France – a testament to its historical significance. Its preservation allows us to appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its role in documenting one of history's most fascinating chapters: Marco Polo's travels along the Silk Road.
