Alix with her girls. The family album book...it says 1913...so that has to be Tatiana's wig...certainly the fringe seems familiar from the formals!

Alix with Dehn's son,both being adorable. I'm thinking of Olga's line about her mother,"and no one's grief as ever passed you by"that tenderness is on display here .
 Also check out the 1906 portraits on the mantel

BlessOTMA I love the second picture. She looks so tender! I wish I could have similar photos of Alix with her children, being so maternal...

Alix in 1898:

Yes. I think the album was of Elena Vladimirovna but I'm not sure.

Oh! I didn't remeber this photo but I love it. They both look so happy, and Alix is smiling, al least a little bit. Thanks for posting it =)
