No problem! :)

The author of the book is, uh, confusing. It's just an album of photos from Imperial Russia, so I can give you the inside cover details. If you're thinking of buying it merely for the Romanov photos, don't bother; the Imperial Family is just one section of the book, and it's hard cover, so that'd be quite pricey.

You can purchase it online, (I think) from the Hermitage shop. I got mine in some souvenier shop near the Church on the Spilled Blood though. :)

Edit: Sorry the photos have crapped out, photobucket did that when I moved them into the Romanov Scans album, I think. I'll fix them later today.

Wow! Thanks, Ally! Wouldn't it be great if the rest of the pictures from that album were put online? I'm not sure about the first one, but until now I've only seen the second in Anastasia's Album.

Marvellous Ally, those were taken during the war, the second one in Evpatoria.  ;=)

However, I am sure that they come from Anastasia's album, she used to colour the photos.

And maybe the color of the dresses can be exactly the original ones, if so, Anastasia liked to dress red... ;)

Anastasia and Maria did like to colorize the pictures and also decorated their albums with paintings.
