This anonymous engraving from 1682 depicts Joan Nieuhof, a Dutch traveler, on an audience with the Queen of Kollam. The scene, likely from Nieuhof's book "Zee-en Lant-Reize", shows Nieuhof kneeling before the queen, who is seated on a throne with her entourage. This artwork offers a glimpse into the historical interaction between Dutch travelers and the rulers of the Malabar Coast.
