    21. This is his St. Vladimir order (no exact date but I think all these orders he recieved somewhere around 1813/1814) This is defintely St.Vladimir (thanks to the portrait by Carl Vilhelm Nordgren).

He received it "for distinctionsin the wars with Napoleon" on October 8, 1813 (No. 2712 according to the Grigorovich - Stepanov list of cavaliers). Med vennlig hilsen, Nick
