EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Ibn Battuta, a renowned explorer and scholar from the 14th century. The image is part of the "Discovery of the Earth" series by Jules Verne, created in the 19th century by an unknown artist. In this particular scene, Ibn Battuta finds himself in Egypt, a land rich with history and mystery. His gaze reflects both curiosity and determination as he navigates through ancient Egyptian landscapes. The engraving beautifully portrays his African heritage, showcasing his proud identity as an Egyptian traveler. The composition exudes a sense of adventure and discovery that was characteristic of Ibn Battuta's extraordinary life. As one of history's greatest explorers, he embarked on numerous journeys across Africa, Asia, and Europe during a time when travel was arduous and dangerous. This artwork not only pays homage to Ibn Battuta but also highlights his significant contributions to our understanding of different cultures and civilizations. Through his extensive travels and writings, he provided invaluable insights into medieval societies around the world. Stefano Bianchetti's careful restoration work has brought this historical piece back to life for us to appreciate today. This print serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring spirit for exploration while honoring those who paved the way for future adventurers like Jules Verne himself.
