The Grand Duchess Maria Nikolaevna in 1911. Doesn’t she remind you of the Little Mermaid?

Misha, Xenia, and Olga

I think this is from about 1895, making them about 17, 20, and 13, respectively.

I just discovered the art of Pavel Ryzhenko, and oh my goodness. hes done so much art depicting Imperial Russia which are some of my favorites. Unfortunately he was a monarchist and idolised Nicholas II, but I myself am here to admire his beautiful art. ”Imprisoned at Tsarskoye Selo” (2004)

Depicting the Tzar, Tzarina (with a tired and aged appearance from the results of fatigue over her short lifetime of childbirth and stress), and their young son Alexei (with a bandaged bleeding knee, symbolising his hemophilia, in bed - where he was most of his short, short, life.)

“The Ipatiev House. The morning after.” (2004)

Depicting a Bolshevik troup tearing apart a room in the Ipatiev House (or “The house of special purpose”) the morning after the murder of the Romanov family in that very house.

“The Farewell of the Tsar to His Troops” (2004)

Namesake, the Tzar bidding goodbye to his troops in the freezing Russian winter.

About Imperial Russia and monarchism- I am not a supporter of Nicholas II or monarchism, but I believe that he shouldve been given a trial by jury and HIS CHILDREN SHOULD NOT HAVE DIED. Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Alexei were completely innocent and had nothing to do with their fathers pathetic and disgusting choices as Tzar. So im just putting that there for clarification.

Rest in peace, royal angels Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Alexei ☦️
