    We know that the dexter coat of the two shields accollé in post #34 (and below) is that of the Naryshkin family but do we know anything about the coat (or coats, actually) on the sinister side of this marshalling, please?

    This is Somov family coat ;)

    From official armorial of Russian Impire

    An impeccable and irrefutable source! - thanks. I am not quite sure why the Somov coat - which btw looks vaguely Polish, to me - is on the dexter side when it comes from the husband. I guess the answer is that his wife significantly outranks him. Anyway, apologies for going off topic.

    I saw just couple of photos of this unbelievable find on some Russian forum before, but most of the photos you were so kind to share with us I see for the first time. Many many thanks! :)
