Description

Paul I of Russia

Emperor of Russia (born 1754) who reigned from 1796 until his assassination in 1801. The son of Catherine the Great and a champion of the poorer classes, his sweeping reforms alienated the Russian nobility and motivated the conspiracy that led to his brutal death. Uncommon LS in French, one page, 7.5 x 4.25, July 12, 1795. Untranslated letter to Monsieur de Stackelberg expressing frustration about an officer’s leave. In fine condition, with staining and paper loss to lower left. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
