It seems that I was not careful when making this new thread then. If that thread already exist, I would kindly please one of the mods to merge all these posts to the already existing thread.

It might be simpler to rename this thread "Rare Pictures XI." (I'm not a mod on this board, so I can't do it.)


Done! I think! At first I thought I had to rename each post, but then I realized I could just do it on page one! yay!

In the series that larri posted, there's one with Tatiana where she seems to have short hair.  Is that the case, or is it just tied up in a unique way?  Either way, it really suits her.

Nah. it's simply just tied back like with a bow i think either that or it's simply behind her ears! These are before 1913 when her hair was shortened!  Smiley

The 2nd photo ,with just Alix and Anastasia,  was taken well before the first with all the girls, ( note AF's hair and AN's youth....) But the interior reminds me of the photo where all the children are gathered about AF and they are in striped sailor outfits...Alexis being one or two years old

You're welcome everyone! I felt really happy too when I found them, specially with the photo of Alix with OTMA.

Exactly Sarushka, thank you. ....plus the windows remind me of this series of photos of the girls the next year( 1913)
  with the addition  of these eBay photos
to known photos , that room and angle  seems quite popular for photo taking....of course no place could top THE corner at AP ! lol!

1907 from the Russian  book , "10 years on the Standart" . Looks like the Tsar and the children playing with officers

Aloha all!

I love that book and have it - altho' I don't read Russian, the pictures alone make it a very worthwhile book to own!
