Nicolas Alexander Kasinouski, Colonel of the first Regiment of the Vistula is named a Baron by Napoleon on this impressive partially printed vellum document.

All inscriptions, including Napoleon's signature, are somewhat faded. Stains and folds, else very good condition. Also included is a massive red wax imperial seal affixed with yellow and gray ribbons. The obverse depicts Napoleon enthroned while the reverse carries an eagle. Wear and one crack.
