Seller of Rice, 1300s

Painted by Giovanni de Grassi in the 1300s, this image shows a merchant selling rice. The fact that he was selling rice, a crop not indigenous to Europe, is an indication of the extent to which European merchants were connected to global trading networks. The work is a miniature from the Theartrum Sanitatis.
