Is there a painting from before the colonization of the Americas depicting travelers from far away visiting European nobles?

Indeed, such pictures are very hard to find (excluding modern movies).
I've found this picture (unknown date) showing "Marco Polo presenting pepper to a King" (story here), however I don't know who the king is (Venice was a republic). You may try to contact the blog author to get more information.
On this picture Vasco da Gama presents gifts to the king of Portugal (this is 7 years after the discovery of America).
