Swiss mercenary Colonel Antoine-Louis-Henri Polier (1741–1795) commissioned it as a gift to his friend Sir William Jones (1746–1794) , in whose honour it contains an ode on folio 1a dated 1200 AH (1785–1786 CE), the latest in the volume. The compositions and their arrangement both closely follow another album that Polier also intended for Jones, but kept by its courier Warren Hastings (1732–1818) , now held in the National Art Library ( MSL/1858/4765 ). The volume also features specimens signed by Muḥammad Ṣādiq Murīd Khān Ṭabāṭabā' (fl. ca. 1735–1785) , Muḥammad Ja‘far Kifāyat Khān (d. 1683) , and Muḥammad Ibrāhīm (fl. late 18th c.) .
