About the work
This watercolour map was drawn by a child. The outlines of the areas of the twelve tribes of Israel are drawn in ink and principal rivers added, as well as other places and landmarks such as Egypt and the Dead Sea. It was held in Lady Charlotte Finch's puzzle cabinet, in which she kept the dissected map puzzles she had commissioned for the children of George III, in her role as Royal Governess.
