Description

A perfectly preserved handwritten letter from one of the most famous Russian diplomats of the XIX century, Karl Nesselrode (1780-1862), written in St. Petersburg, October 4, 1847, and addressed to Mr. Shepherd, in French. Nesselrode responds to a letter from his correspondents sent from Berlin a few days ago and states: "Responding to Your desire to receive from the Imperial government a privilege allowing you to present your invention in Russia, I must inform you that your request should not be addressed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and that if you wish to continue such a process, you will have to send it to the competent authorities." With a small blank embossed seal of the Imperial St. Petersburg Paper Mill in the upper left corner. The letter was neatly attached to a larger piece of paper. The size with a backing is 210*280 mm. With proper design in a frame with a passepartout, a great gift for any diplomatic worker. Guarantee of authenticity.

History

Count Karl Vasilyevich Nesselrode or Karl Robert von Nesselrode-Ehreshoven (German Karl Robert Reichsgraf von Nesselrode-Ehreshoven; December 2 [13], 1780, Lisbon — March 11 [23], 1862, St. Petersburg) was a Russian statesman of German origin, the penultimate chancellor of the Russian Empire. He held the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs longer than anyone else in the history of both Russia and the USSR (almost 40 years, counting the years of joint management of foreign affairs with Kapodistria). A supporter of rapprochement with Austria and Prussia, an opponent of revolutionary movements and liberal transformations, one of the organizers of the Holy Alliance.
