Imperial Russia General Michejewt

[Odulf]

Some time ago I found this Cabinet size portrait for my collection.

I had the text on the reverse translated and it says:

To the Director of the Mining Corporation and Chemical Society "Alagir"

Dear Josifu Gubertowitsu

As a commemorative to your hospitality

From the Commander of the Terskoy District and Atamana,

Lieut-General An.St. Michejewt

19 14/XI II Wladikawkaz (in the Caucasus)

As Imperial Russian uniforms and decorations are not my common ground, can anyone give more information about this splendid portrait?
