An anecdote about Queen Marie from Daniel Clifton's book Lords, Ladies, and Gentlemen.... Queen Marie came to call on Princess Tatiana Konstantinovna Bagration-Mukhransky (KR's granddaughter) and her children in Belgrade. Queen Marie was dressed in black mourning clothes. Princess Tatiana's young daughter, Princess Natasha, hid and mistaking Queen Marie for the angel of death, "pointed to her mother and said, "Take her instead"" (Clifton 46-47) .
