EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Nicolo Matteo e Marco Polo partono dalla corte di Cubilai Gran Can de Tartari occidentali per ripatriarsi, 1291" takes us back in time to the rich history of Venice. Created by an Italian School artist in the 19th century, this print captures a significant moment in the lives of two renowned explorers. The image depicts Nicolo Matteo and Marco Polo departing from the court of Kublai Khan, also known as Cubilai Gran Can de Tartari occidentali. It is 1291, and these brave Venetians are setting sail on their journey back home after spending years immersed in the wonders of faraway lands. As we gaze at this artwork, we can almost feel the excitement and anticipation radiating from their faces. The intricate details showcase their Venetian attire and highlight the opulence surrounding them. This illustration was originally created for Storia Veneta Espressa in Centocinquanta Tavole (Grimaldo, 1867), adding historical significance to its artistic beauty. Venice's role as a prominent maritime power during that era comes alive through this engraving. It serves as a reminder of Italy's glorious past and its contributions to European exploration. Preserved within a private collection today, this print offers us a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history when two adventurers embarked on an extraordinary expedition that would forever shape our understanding of distant cultures and lands.
