I found this labeled as Marie of Hesse, future empress of Russia; is it really her?

About the first posted I don't think that the lady portrayed is the Empress... or perhaps very young...
I wonder which event was in the second one? Really lovely

I didn't think it looked much like her either, but I was curious to see what other people thought.

I wonder - do you create a new topic to focus attention on your question or just don't see the proper topic near at hand? I merged the threads, please do a search before starting  ANY topic.
Thanks for understanding.

I'm sorry, I think I'm searching wrong then, because nothing comes up when I do. Sorry again to make a fuss.
