EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Road descending from the Table-Land of Yun-nan into the Valley of the Kin-sha Kiang, the Brius of Polo" takes us on a visual journey through time and space. The image, created by an English School artist in the 20th century, captures a momentous scene from Marco Polo's legendary travels. The print showcases a winding road that gracefully descends from the elevated plateau of Yun-nan into the lush valley below. As we follow this ancient path with our eyes, we can almost feel ourselves being transported to another era. This is not just any road; it is part of Polo's epic expedition across Asia. The historical significance of this artwork lies in its connection to Marco Polo's renowned book, aptly named "The Book of Ser Marco Polo". Translated and edited by Henry Yule in 1921, this third edition brought forth tales of adventure and discovery that continue to captivate readers today. Through this beautifully engraved image, we catch a glimpse into distant lands and cultures far removed from our own. It serves as a reminder that history has shaped our present reality and invites us to explore beyond our comfort zones. Whether you are an avid traveler or simply appreciate history coming alive through art, this print offers both inspiration and intrigue. Let your imagination wander as you trace each curve along this historic road descending into the enchanting Valley of Kin-sha Kiang.
