I agree with Lanie on the ear piercing. I've never seen one picture of either Maria or Anastasia with their ears pierced when the picture wasn't already full of dots and speckles! Olga and Tatiana aren't wearing them either so I don't think Anastasia would wear them alone if she did have them.

A special treat for those members who haven't yet seen Prince Michael of Greece's album. I spent a couple hours scanning the photos that I thought were not so well-known as well as a few that are (since I think I got some pretty large scans of them). On a few of the "rarer" photos, I focused in on the Grand Duchesses' faces for a different look at the photo. I've also done this on a few of the better known photos. I've marked those with an asterisk (*) and if any of you would like to see a closeup of any of them, just PM me and let me know which you'd like to see.

Oh, thank you so much! I had already saw the third one you posted but not the others !!
They're so beautiful!
On the picture with Alix, it is so incredible how much she looks old... Pity... she was a true beauty, before!  :(

Thank you Emmy, so much!

I've always looked for Aleksei's one at Stavka.  ;) And, who/what is behind Anna Virburova in the first photo? Looks like a nurse?

Nicholas and Maria Feodorovna, Krasnoye Selo:

Not sure how rare this one is, actually:

Behind Nicholas and Alexandra, you can see Anastasia and perhaps Maria:

Nena, I was trying to figure out that too when I was looking through the book. It looks like a nurse and perhaps vaguely like Olga, but there's no way I can be sure of that.


Behind Alexei, you can barely see Maria and Anastasia:

Alexandra and Queen Alexandra:

Nicholas and Michael, son of Nicholas I:
