- W2487705786 abstract "In the Oxford Museum of the History of Science hangs an oil painting (Figure 6.1), which contains a rare depiction of slavery in the context of the early East India Company. The young man of African origin, whose iron collar suggests that he is enslaved, is holding a map of the Persian Gulf. The other figure in the painting is John Chardin (1643–1713), a French Huguenot who became wealthy designing jewellery and trading diamonds in Persia and India. He immigrated to England in 1681 and quickly became a leading investor in the EIC and a member of the Royal Society. He produced several volumes of descriptive accounts of Persia and India, assisted by the natural philosopher John Evelyn. Chardin was also instrumental in brokering the 1688 agreement between the EIC and the Armenians for trading collaboration.1 Much like other characters discussed in this book, Chardin made his name within both the EIC and the Royal Society by trading on his knowledge of foreign lands and customs. The focus of this chapter, however, is not on Chardin, but on the inhabitants of EIC settlements represented by his companion." @default.
