About The Artwork
Named for the explorer who travelled further than Marco Polo, centuries before the Age of Discovery. Turtles are known for their longevity and for navigating vast oceans, migrating thousands of miles every year. Over a lifetime, this turtle has gathered treasures and ceramics from different cultures and eras — much like Ibn Battuta himself, who explored not for conquest but simply to see the world and learn from it. It felt like a fitting parallel.
This original oil painting comes ready to hang. It is signed and dated by the artist on the back.
We also include a certificate of authenticity to ensure provenance.
