Description

This book offers an extraordinary journey filled with culture and colours, whereby Alfred Monesquiou travels in the steps of Marco Polo, starting in Venice and using “The Book of Wonder,” the book written by the explorer in the 3rd century, to guide him. This is a journey guided by a quest for beauty, intelligence and subtlety: “Turn one's gaze to things that deserve to be admired, preserved or nurtured.” The author shares archaeological wonders, historical sites, kilim motifs and Buddha statues.

Stories, anecdotes, and journeys into the past lead us along this legendary, mysterious route, the Silk Road. A magnificent eyewitness account of peoples, landscapes, men and women and cultures containing splendid photos.
