Object history

In 1686, Samuel Baron sent his manuscript 'Description of Tonqueen' from Fort St George, Madras to Robert Hooke and Robert Hoskins. The manuscript was not published until 1732 when it appeared in the sixth volume of the second and subsequent editions of Awnsham and John Churchill, A Collection of Voyages and Travels, 6 vols (London, 1732).

The text has been published as an edition in 2006, as Samuel Baron and Christoforo Borri, Views of Seventeenth-Century Vietnam: Christoforo Borri on Cochinchina and Samuel Baron on Tonkin, ed. by Olga Dror and K. W. Taylor (Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 2006).
Inscriptions The Bora or King of Tonkin, ie. Lê Duy Hạp (r. 1675–1705), when he gives an audience, in Illustrations for Samuel Baron's 'A description of the kingdom of Tonqueen', Vol. V, plate 8.
Samuel Baron copied the image after an original by 'a Tonqueener of eminent Quality' (Baron, 194).
