EDITORS COMMENTS
Les derniers jours des Romanov: Les quatre grandes-duchesses en 1914" (The Last Days of the Romanovs: The Four Grand Duchesses in 1914) is a poignant photograph capturing the last known image of the four eldest daughters of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia before their tragic fates unfolded. The photograph was published in "L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2" by L'Illustration, Paris, in 1924. The four grand duchesses, Anastasia Nikolaevna, Olga Nikolaevna, Tatiana Nikolaevna, and Maria Alexandrovna, are seen dressed in elegant yet simple attire, sitting together in a room adorned with ornate furnishings and large windows, allowing the sunlight to filter in. Their expressions suggest a sense of calm and tranquility, yet one cannot help but feel a sense of foreboding, knowing the fate that awaited them. Anastasia Nikolaevna, the youngest of the four, is seated on the left, her hands folded in her lap. Olga Nikolaevna, the eldest, is seated to her right, her gaze fixed on something off-camera. Tatiana Nikolaevna, the second eldest, is seated next to Olga, her hands resting on her knees. Maria Alexandrovna, the third eldest, is seated on the far right, her hands folded in her lap and her eyes closed, lost in thought. The photograph serves as a reminder of the Romanov dynasty's final days before the Russian Revolution and the tragic end that the four grand duchesses and their family faced. The image has become a symbol of the innocence and beauty of youth, as well as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The photograph is a powerful reminder of a bygone era, a time of grandeur and elegance that was soon to be shattered. The four grand duchesses, who would later become the Duchess of Edinburgh, the Duchess of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and the Grand Duchesses of Russia, are frozen in time in this hauntingly beautiful image.
