Found this nut job on facebook today! claims to be the granddaughter of Tatiana and that she (her name is Alexandra) is returning to Russia to take the throne. She posted on one of the pictures that Tatiana lived because she wasn't even there that night.

The Tudors / Re: The White Queen

« on: June 20, 2013, 09:30:53 AM »

I just finished watching it online! I heard about this show awhile ago but could never find more info on it. So last night when I found it online I was SO happy. Since I didn't know that they had started it yet.

OK, so I really like it so far! I loved the Tudors but was always mad about how messed up it was, so I was really happy to see that it was more historically accurate. The only thing I am slightly  upset about is the way they are portraying Elizabeth and her Mother as witches. I can see where it may add to the story later on, and I know there was rumors that her mother was a witch, but I'm just not sure if I like how  they are doing it. I can't wait to see where they go with the show! And I can't too for when they bring the war of the roses and the tudors into it more!

I'm sure you've seen it before , it's just a zoom of this photo of Olga where Anastasia is in the background :

Ah! yes! Just didn't realize since its cropped, thank you!

I'm trying to organize all my pictures of OTMAA in court dress from 1910/1911 and I have a question:

Anyone else notice that Anastasia doesn't change her pose at all between the two photographs?  Is there anyway this was photo shopped?  I don't see any obvious signs of it, other than that she doesn't move.

Her hands are just the tiniest bit closer together in the second photo, IMO.

I agree, her wrist looks more bent as well.

This photos are made in 1916. The sourse of this photos is State Archiv in Moscow. The albums of Grand Duchess .
I know the person , who did this scans. It's not good idea to mark this scans.

why is it not a good idea to mark them? just wondering

If it is indeed 1914 then Tatiana must be wearing a wig. Had her hair grown back more before they all got sick? I can't remember

I also remember something about Anastasia getting chubby and for some reason I keep thinking back to a picture of her standing outside the hospital and she looks a little on the chubby side. I don't have it on this laptop or I would post it. so another thought would be like 1916? Plus, Tatiana's hair is pinned back up by 1916 so maybe it was a lot longer by then? and I think Maria looks about right for 1916. but I could be wrong.

1916.

As far as I can tell, these are rare. I've scoured everywhere I can think of to see if the Mauve Room one is rare, and I can't find it anywhere else so here it is. Sorry they're not very good quality.

I thought that I had seen the Mauve Room one but when I went looking the girls are seated different (Anastasia and Maria are switched) so yes, I don't think I have seen that picture. wish we had it clearer!
