‎Roberto Polo the eye. art collecting‎

‎, Frances Lincoln Publishers, London, 2011 Hardback with dusjacket in full color, 688 pages, Format: 325mm x 245mm, Over 400 colour photographs, very fine printed ! ***TRES BON ETAT/NEUF!!! ISBN 9780711232525.‎


‎This book explores the visual evolution of the legendary connoisseur and philanthropist Roberto Polo through a selection of over three hundred masterpieces and magnificent gemstones from the extraordinary collections which he has formed. At an early age, Roberto Polo revealed a powerful talent as a visual artist, exhibiting his work in major art museums and galleries. Thanks to his profound knowledge of art history and theory, he also revealed an astonishing talent for identifying exceptional art and gemstones from many periods and origins. Roberto Polo was educated at the Corcoran School of Art, where he was appointed professor at the precocious age of sixteen, and at Columbia University. At the age of twenty-four, he conceived and organized the now landmark exhibition Fashion as Fantasy, featuring works especially created by fifty-four exhibitors, including David Hockney, Robert Motherwell and Andy Warhol. Roberto Polo was instrumental in founding Citibank?s Fine Art Investment Services, the first department of its kind in the banking industry. In 1981, he left Citibank and became an independent art and gemstone investment advisor. During this period, he formed collections of French eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth-century fine and decorative arts, as well as of gemstones, described by Le Journal des Arts as ?anthological?. In 1988, the French Republic bestowed on him the medal of Commandeur de l?ordre des Arts et de Lettres for his contributions to French art and culture.In the same year, he became the victim of a Kafkaesque judicial affair from which he rose in 1995, according to The New York Times , as ?the wonderful phoenix of the art market?, now championing Historical Design and Modernism independently and through Galerie Historismus. Described by Le Figaro as ?The Eye? and by Architectural Digest as ?The Trendsetter of the Art Market?, Roberto Polo continues to follow his edict that one should only acquire art which was revolutionary in its time.Exquisitely illustrated with over four hundred colour photographs, and with texts by leading art and jewellery historians, this book is a fascinating insight into the man described by Art & Auction , as ?one of the ten people who have made a difference in the art market? and an illuminating account of his forty years of collecting activity.‎

‎La géographie de l'Asie avant Marco Polo. Quelques mots sur le choix des textes présentés. Le Livre des deux Mahométans. Voyage de Jean du Plan de Carpin. Itinéraire de Guillaume de Rubruk. — "Les géographes occidentaux du Moyen âge ignoraient tout de l'Asie centrale, de la Chine et de l'Inde ; c'était pour eux une Terra incognita qu'ils imaginaient désertique, peuplée de lions et autres bêtes sauvages, d'anthropophages. Quel était le véritable aspect de ces pays, quels peuples y vivaient, quelles civilisations s'y étaient développées ? Ils n'en savaient rien. Pourtant dans l'antiquité le monde gréco-romain avait été en relations avec la Chine et l'Inde par les caravanes de marchands qui partaient des ports de la Méditerranée orientale pour aller échanger leurs marchandises contre la soie de Chine, les épices de l'Inde. Les armées d'Alexandre avaient pénétré au cœur de l'Asie et dans l'Inde. Plus tard, au Moyen âge, les marchands suivaient les mêmes routes que ceux des temps antiques. Mais les géographes continuaient d'ignorer cette source d'informations. Il fallut attendre le voyage de Marco Polo, marchand vénitien, au début du XIVe siècle et le récit qu'il fit de son séjour en Chine pour dissiper cette ignorance. Marco Polo déchirait les voiles qui entouraient le mystère de la Chine : il y montrait un empire à la civilisation avancée, des flottes de navires bariolés, des palais aux toits d'or au milieu de villes ceintes de murailles. D'ailleurs, avant le Vénitien, plusieurs voyageurs avaient pénétré en Asie et en connaissaient tous les secrets. M. A. t' Serstevens a dressé la liste de ces audacieux, à commencer par Cosmas Indicopleustès, marchand d'Alexandrie qui, au VIe siècle, s'était rendu dans l'Inde et à Ceylan. A. ťSerstevens a retenu les relations laissées par le musulman Soleyman qui, au IXe siècle, pénétra en Chine et dans l'Inde, et par un moine, Frère Guillaume de Rubruk, qui au XIIIe siècle visita les pays des Mongols et des Tartares. Il a judicieusement fait précéder le texte de ces deux récits par un tableau de l'Asie avant Marco Polo, tableau d'une remarquable érudition." (Revue des Deux Mondes, 1960) ‎
