paja Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) I've made separate topics about decorations of kings Milan and Aleksandar Obrenović and now I'll continue with Miloš. In the future I plan to do the same for some other Serbian rulers, namely Mihailo Obrenović and prince Aleksandar Karađorđević, Karađorđe's son. Portrait by Uroš Knežević from 1835. Miloš is wearing Russian Order of St. Anna with Crown 1st Class, possibly Order of St. Anna with Brilliants 2nd Class and Ottoman Nişan-ı Zişan. Apart from that we can see Russian Golden Saber for Bravery presented to his half-brother, vojvoda Milan Obrenović, by prince Bagration on December 21, 1809 (January 3, 1810). The saber is kept at the Belgrade Military Museum, more information about it can be found here. Edited November 7, 2016 by paja

Order of St. Anna with Crown 1st Class, Nişan-ı Zişan and the Portrait of the Sultan with Jewels (Murassa Tasvir-i Hümayun) with the portrait of the sultan Abdülmecid II (information found in a very interesting topic started by Demir here).

paja Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) One more portrait by Uroš Knežević. Edited November 7, 2016 by paja
Kallarati Heroik Posted November 7, 2016 Posted November 7, 2016 Very beautifull uniforms and orders. Great paintings.
paja Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 Two very similar portraits, I'd say the first one is "original" with some changes done on the second one - Miloš's dress is blue and the sash is for St. Anna. I presume that's the case here because on the rest of the portraits Miloš wears the sash of St. Anna according to regulations, over the left shoulder, while the Iron Crown sash should be worn over the right shoulder...

paja Posted November 7, 2016 Author Posted November 7, 2016 (edited) Speaking of uniforms here's one dress (dolama) that can be seen of his portraits. I think it's kept at the Historical Museum of Serbia. Edited November 7, 2016 by paja
