The Alexander Palace Time Machine Discussion Forum

You mean if I´m going to put the embed vidoe to my site? Yes, but before Christmas:)

I think they planned to kill the family, but not servants.

I heard that when Trotski was asking about the Emperor (after the murder), Lenin told him that they decided it´s for the best not to leave any living symbol....

Could you post Tatiana´s portrait? Or the link to it?

It´s so wonderful Tessel!!!

May I use it on my site? I´m sure I can find a place for it there:)

In that case I know one such painting of Olga and two of Marie, but none of Anastasia or Tatiana....

I have just found this, but I´m confused...

It´s supposed to be one of OTMA´s partraits, but I really have no idea which girl it is. Anyone knows?

WHat about this? Beautiful Maria in court dress...

I made this video as a memory of the Romanovs in the time before Christmas, that is upon us. It may be a bit soon, but maybe a bit of Christmas mood is never ill-timed I think...But if you think so, then leave this topic please and return on Christmas Eve

I´ve just discovered this one! I absolutely love it!

If I´m not mistaken, Olga is holding Alexei on her lap, the girls are Anastasia and Maria.

Thank you fo your reply and th elink.

Though it´s not much use to me since I don´t know anything in French:)

Thank God I don´t know this Caleb guy:)

And leah: wonderful sites...may I add them to my link collection on Marie´s saucers?

I think it was considered natural for Imperial children to ride a horse.

Perhaps they started with playing with ponnies and as they grew up, they learned to handle the horses...I could be wrong, but it´s true that I´ve never read anything about it either.

Is it just me or does anyone else has teary eye when reading the GD´s letters from captivity?

Thank you Alexande64!

Forgive me for prying, but is Russia your native language? I think not, because sometimes the sentences doesn´t make sense to me (and English is not my native language, so I could be wrong...)

Thank you from the heart for the translation Alexande64.

My poor Maria.

If I´m not wrong, "yours and Nik. DM" reffers to her love to Nikolay Demenkov....she was still in love with him....

Does anyone ever heard what happened to the boy? Did he die in the war? Would someone feel bad, if I write a fiction about him?

Thank you so much Sarushka!

I´ve never seen the second one before!
