EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, as depicted in the artwork "Ms Fr 2810 f. 6, Nicolo, Marco and Matteo Polo taking leave of the Great Khan". Created by the talented Boucicaut Master and his workshop around 1410-12, this tempera on vellum painting is housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. The image portrays an emotional farewell scene between three Italian explorers - Nicolo, Marco, and Matteo Polo - and Kublai Khan, also known as the Great Khan. The Polos were embarking on a remarkable journey that would later be chronicled by Marco Polo himself. Dressed in traditional Asian attire with their heads respectfully bowed down before the mighty emperor, they bid farewell to Kublai Khan who sits atop his majestic throne. The horses nearby symbolize their upcoming expedition along the Silk Road. This miniature illumination beautifully depicts not only a historical event but also showcases cultural exchange between Europe and Asia during the medieval period. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and exploration. The Livre des Merveilles du Monde (Book of Wonders of the World) from which this artwork originates contains records of various travelers' adventures across Asia. It includes accounts from Marco Polo's travels alongside those of other notable figures such as Odorico de Pordone and Ricaldo da Monte di Croce. Overall, this exquisite piece invites us to delve into centuries-old tales of bravery, discovery, and cross-cultural encounters that shaped our understanding of the world we live in today.
