Portfolio print from Witold Gordon's illustrations for The Travels of Marco Polo depicting the river Karamoran. In the foreground, four ships with masts and sails, their reflections cast on the surface of the calm water. In the background, architectural skyline of a city in Eastern style, with domed and pagoda-like roofs, the buildings also casting reflections on the river. In the background, rugged mountains and wispy clouds.
