That is a very nice example of a difficult to locate Schirmmütze.

Worn by a Freiherr or aristocrat. One can see the crowned monogram.

thanks
unfortunately I don't have any information about the Officer, I bought this cap many years ago during the wonderful exhibitons in Baltard pavillion in Nogent sur Marne.

Actually you do have information about the officer. If the monogram is his, you know his regiment, first letter of last name, and his rank as a noble (each noble rank has a different crown, this one is for a Baron).

this is the right job for our friend Philippe…
