I LOVE THESE PHOTOS🥺❤

BRAND NEW photographs of the Grand Duchesses, found in the Darmstardt Archive

Shared by Ilya, @sledstvie on Instagram / LastRomanovs on Flickr, these photos show the Grand Duchesses having fun with their Uncle Ernie whilst on holiday in Livadia. Whilst a few photos from this day were found in the Grand Duchesses' albums (and hence known to the public) these funny photos were hidden away in archives!

A number of previously unknown, rare, and high-quality photographs have been uncovered in the Darmstardt Archives in the recent weeks.

Ernest Louis, later Grand Duke of Hesse and by Rhine, with his aunt Princess Louise, Marchioness of Lorne, 1881.

“She was so nice to us children, and it always gave her pleasure if she could do things with us. She was beautiful and I worshipped her... we could talk over so many things together. She has always remained the same to me, and now when she is almost ninety, she is still a match for any beautiful woman.”

You can also see Princesses Louise, Victoria, and Maud of Wales.

And I also believe that girl behind Maud whom of which is peaking out on the right, could possibly be Princesses Irene or Elisabeth of Hesse(?)

Royals from Denmark, England and Greece. Among them we can see Ernst Ludwig of Hesse, Alix of Hesse (later Tsarina of Russia, behind Ernst), Grand Duke Louis IV of Hesse, the Prince and the Princess of Weles, Prince George of Greece, King Christian of Denmark and others.
