Tomb of King Sedecias

Above Mount Lebanon is the figure of an oblong square with a small triangle in the centre : this is the tomb of king Sedecias, the last king of the race of David

Thus says the “Chevalier d’Orient ou de l’Epée” degree (‘Knight of the East or the Sword’) in the Bonseigneur collection. The description of the image does not entirely fit the image that we see on this Chevalier d’Orient tracing board in 84 Tableaux, but the placement (here below Mount Lebanon) suggests what is meant is (something) similar.
