#Princess Zinaida Yusupova

[lesyoussoupoff]

"Nikolai had been the jewel of his parent's eye. He graduated from the law faculty of St. Petersburg University, was a gifted writer (publishing under the pen name "Rokov"), an amateur actor, and founder of a comedy troupe. He had plans to join one of the elite guards regiments when he was killed in a duel in June 1908 at the age of twenty-five by Count Arvid Manteifel, after falling in love with the count's wife, Countess Marina Heiden. Zinaida was devasted and never fully recovered." -Douglas Smith, Rasputin: Faith, Power and the Twilight of the Romanovs

Princess Zinaida's little white dog

Hello, this might be a shot in the dark but does anyone know the name of Princess Zinaida/Zenaide's dog? I've been looking all over the internet but there's nothing... Has it ever been known? I feel like it should be written down somewhere, right? We know about Felix's Punch and Gugusse and even his macaw but not his mother's dog?

this little white dog!!

I know two of Felix's dogs names but if you also infos on more, I'd gladly take them! I just love the Yusupov and their dogs and I wish we had more informations about them...

Portrait of Princess Zinaida Yusupova (c.1900-1902). Valentin Serov (Russian, 1865-1911). Oil on canvas. Russian Museum.

Princess Zinaida Nikolayevna Yusupova was an Imperial Russian noblewoman, the only heiress of Russia's largest private fortune of her time. Famed for her beauty and the lavishness of her hospitality, she was a leading figure in pre-Revolutionary Russian society. Serov depicts Princess Zenaida in her Moika Palace. This portrait is often considered Serov's masterpiece.
