    Russian Cavalier (unfortunately unidentified)

    Interesting, I have a portrait of the same man, so he must be a celeb.

    The last cross on your portrait and next to last on the previous one is the Austro-Hungarian Military Maria-Theresa Order-Knight.

    The man of the picture, Emperor Alexander II of Russia, was awarded also with the Grand Cross of the Pour le Mérite Order. Any of you has seen a portrait of him with this exclusive decoration?

    Thanks.
