EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the historic moment when Venetian merchants Niccolo and Maffeo Polo depart from Constantinople in 1259, embarking on a remarkable journey to the East. The image, created by the German School in the 19th century, is based on a miniature found in the Livre des Merveilles, a French manuscript from the late 14th century. The Polo brothers' departure symbolizes an era of exploration and adventure during the Middle Ages. As traders, they set out to discover new lands and establish lucrative trade routes. Little did they know that their expedition would lead to one of history's most renowned travelogues – Marco Polo's "Il Milione". In this scene, we witness their departure from Constantinople with all its bustling activity and vibrant energy. The Polos stand tall as proud representatives of Venice, ready to face unknown territories and cultures beyond Europe's borders. The image not only highlights their Italian heritage but also serves as a reminder of Europe's rich medieval history. It evokes feelings of curiosity and wonder about what lies ahead for these brave explorers. As we gaze upon this print today, it reminds us of humanity's unyielding spirit for discovery and our innate desire to push boundaries. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by individuals like Niccolo and Maffeo Polo who dared to venture into uncharted territories centuries ago.
