Probably you're thinking of this image of Nicholas & Alexandra's bedroom wall at the Ipatiev house in Ekaterinburg:

Thank you, Sarushka. That is it. I know this original is now part of the Hermitage Museum collection. Could it be possible that it survived Ekaterinburg? Can it be the same picture?

I think it must have been Gilliard, as he identified them so well. The pic was first published on his book about the Romanovs. Here is the original edition, in French.

There is a diagram of the floorplan of the Tobolsk house in [urlhttp://www.alexanderpalace.org/palace/books.html?sku=97]Le Tsarevitch, enfant martyr[/url].

These plans were sketched by Greg King. The layout is essentially the same as the diagram in Princess Eugenie's book, though the scale differs somewhat:

Thank-you very much Sarushka! Are those the same floor plans you saw nena?

I am presuming here,that the black boxes on the 2nd floor (bedrooms) are stoves or fireplaces? Also in the 1st floor (dining room) are all those doors double doors?

thanks

Yes - they are.   ;-). I think white boxes are supposed to be windows. Don't know about black ones. It might be.

I think doors are double ones. Here is Ncholas' room at Tobolsk:

Yes. Probably Russian-style ceramic stoves.

Also in the 1st floor (dining room) are all those doors double doors?

Not sure. The only doors I've seen photos of are Alexandra's sitting room, the tsar's study, and the dining room.

[tom_romanov]

thank you nena and Sarushka is the photo of the dining room the one with Olga, Tatiana and M. Gillard etc?

[nena]

I think it is., Tatischev, Hendrikova, Schnieder are also presented, early 1918, April, most probably,  after NAM went to Ekaterinburg.
