      I stumbled upon this remarkable photo on ebay.
      s-l1600.jpg
       

      His right side:
      1) Montenegrin Order of Danilo
      2) French Legion of Honor 
      3) Italian Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus
      4) Romanian Star

      Around the neck: Russian Order of St. George 

      His left side:
      1) Austro-Hungarian Order of St. Stephen
      2) Order of Takovo
      3) Russian Order of St. Andrew?
      4) Ottoman Order of Osmanieh 
      5) Austro-Hungarian Order of Leopold
      6) ???

      Medals:
      7) Wars for Liberation and Independence Commemorative Medal
      8) Romanian Medal of Military Virtue
      9) Romanian Defenders of Independence Medal 1877-78

      Photo was made in Novi Sad, part of Austria-Hungary back then. Based on that I think he's most likely wearing sash of the Order of St. Stephen. My guess is that the photo was made in the early 1880s.

       

      Some photo ?
