A month now until the exhibition Aventuriers des Mers. Méditerranée—océan Indien, VIIe-XVIIe siècle opens at the MUCEM in Marseille (7 June – 9 October 2017) after a successful run at the Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris. If you can’t get there the exhibition catalogue Aventuriers des mers, de Sindbad à Marco Polo is worth getting hold of.
