Grand Duke Kyrill, his wife Victoria Fedorovna and children, Part II

[Carolath Habsburg]

That would be fine!. I thought to have two topics about her was kind of redundant

[Eric_Lowe]

I agree with that too, but she is a unique case: A British (Edinburgh)/German (Coburg) Princess marrying into German (Hesse) and then to Russia.

Yes, i know Veronica. I found out just after i posted it, But well, this is her topic as Grand Duchess and its right posted here too.

Well, I was just commenting it, because I remembered seeing it in the other thread.

Which is why her ultimate thread should be where she spent the majority of her life--as a Russian Grand Duchess. Her childhood is already discussed on the Edinburgh/Coburg thread (Windsors), her early marriage and first child on their respective threads (Hesse), her 2nd marriage and family on this thread.

Was this one taken at Kira's wedding with Louis Ferdinand?

Yes it was taken during her wedding to Louis Ferdinand.

[Eric_Lowe]

The Orthodox ceremony i think. The wedding was moved later so that the Kaiser could attend too.

Victoria, sad eyes

I'm always wondering, why this woman was considered beauty. I remember GD Aleksander Mikhailovich remarked in his memories that she was beautiful, as well as her sisters.

What do you think? she was a beauty or not, in your opinion?

[Carolath Habsburg]

Well, compared with Beatrice or Missy, she wasnt a beauty, but i must say she has a wonderful sight. I ve read she had a rare eye colour share, kinda purple.

[Eric_Lowe]

I think she had beauty of expression that seldom capture in photos I guess...
