His Imperial Highness Tsesarevich and Grand Duke Alexei Nicholaievich on 29th October 1915, in Riga, in front of hospital. Such a nice one!

Welcome you both. Well, there is website, there are plenty of never seen IF's photos. www.photoarchive.spb.ru . I repeat, all is copyrighted. I think that images can be ordered, let's say, bought. Copies, of course.

Thank you Nena for the link. Is this the same GARF that contains personal albums of the Imperial Family? Are they finally digitalizing the images? How exciting!!!

I believe this is a different archive, located in St. Petersburg.

The last one was taken in Krasnoe Selo, I believe, during maneuvers.

Well, one little Christmas gift from me, for Maria's fans, with her father, I believe during war. I hope if this one is new.  :-[
