Summary
DescriptionAudience with Narai, 1685-10-18 (a).jpg |
English: A drawing by Jean-Baptiste Nolin depicts an event that took place on 18 October 1685 CE at the Hall of Sanphet in Ayutthaya (now a province of Thailand). In that event, King Narai of the Ayutthaya Kingdom granted an audience to an extraordinary mission accredited by King Louis XIV of France. The mission was led by Alexandre, Chevalier de Chaumont. Narai, making an appearance at a balcony of the mentioned hall, had to lower himself to pick the missive up from Alexandre, who refused to raise the missive up to Narai. Narai's chancellor, Constantine Phaulkon, is seen making a gesture telling Alexandre to raise the missive higher to Narai. Alexandre was accompanied by François-Timoléon de Choisy and Louis Laneau.
Guy Tachard recorded the event as follows [A Relation of the Voyage to Siam. (1688). London: T.B. for F. Robinson and A. Churchill. p. 171.]:
