Seal of Prince Ivan Holshansky attached to the document of the Grand Duke Vytautas of Lithuania issued in Merkinė on 12 January 1390. The field of the seal bears an image of the Virgin Mary standing fully erect, facing right, wearing a maphorion, a himation and a mitre, with a halo surrounding her head and her hands raised in a gesture of prayer. She is blessed from Heaven by the "Hand of God". The epithet of the Mother of God - Hagiosoritissa - is engraved in Greek. In the rim there is an inscription: IВАNОВА ПЕЧАТ[...]КИМОNТОВИ(Ч)А.[1]

Ivan Olshanski (Olshansky) (Belarusian: Іван Гальшанскі, lit. 'Ivan Halshansky', Lithuanian: Jonas Alšėniškis or Jonas Algimantaitis Alšėniškis, Polish: Iwan Olgimuntowicz Holszański,[2] died in or after 1402) was a member of the Lithuanian princely Alšėniškiai (Holshansky) family.[3] Historians only know his father's name, Algimantas.[3] Ivan was a faithful companion of Vytautas the Great, Grand Duke of Lithuania.[3] They both were married to daughters of Sudimantas of Eišiškės.[3][4] Ivan's daughter Juliana became the third wife of Vytautas in 1418. His granddaughter Sophia became the fourth wife of King Władysław Jagiełło in 1424.

His patrimony consisted of Halshany, Iwye, Hlusk, Porechye and others.[5]
