English: "Moghul embassy", seen by the Dutch visitors in Beijing in 1656. According to Lach & Kley (1993), modern historians (namely, en:Luciano Petech) think that the emissaries portrayed had actually come from Turfan, and not all the way from the Moghul India |
| Date | Published in German edition in 1666, presumably reproduced from the 1665 Dutch edition. Must have been originally drawn during the Dutch embassy's visit to Beijing, in 1656 |
