Next to Cecilie is Grand Duke Kyrill Vladimirovicth.

Are you sure? The photo ID'd it as Dmitri as did another taken on the occasion.  ???

Here is the entire photo (I'll try and enlarge it):
[old image replaced with larger one]


Actually, as I was getting another pose, it does look like Kyril (and makes sense since he was the bride's father). Probably I shrunk it and then messed up my ID because it was so small :-/


front : GD Vladimir (on floor) , Kira, Louis Ferdinand, most likely Kyril, CPss Juliana of Netherlands (on floor)

back: CPss Cecile (behind bride), August Wilhelm of Prussia (next to Cecile--uncle of groom), Kaiser Wilhelm, perhaps next to him in shadow is Dmitri? and Empress Hermine (in profile and black hat)

Dmitry never weared moustaches. The person next to Cecilie is definitely Kyrill - it's his daughter's wedding   :).
Dmitry did not attend at this gathering.

The photo is great,Ella! I have seen it many times but never failed to love.

I had never seen the picture of Demitri, Audrey and baby Paul, it is absolutely wonderful.  Thank you Svetabel, so very much.  Does any one know if the awful black circles under his eyes are a symptom of his illness, he seemed to have them when he was still quite young. Lisa (Davidson) I know that you are a really busy lady, but if you could post the picture you have framed of Demitri, Nicholas and the two girls I would appreciate it so much.    ..Arleen


Arleen - our scanner doesn't work but I have asked my husband to try to get an image up for you.

I don't know why that came out so small. Let's see if this is better:

Dmitri was involved in Rasputin's murder.  Nicholas as punishment sent him to the Persian front.  This ultimately saved his life.  

With British help he escaped via Teheran and Bombay to London.

I have noticed how much Dmitry's health seems to have failed after the revolution. Many have called it stress, some guilt, but I think it amazing how one's emotinal stress and even guilt can do one's physical apperance. Alexandra also underwent a change following Alexei's birth, she physically and emotionally simply started to fall apart.

I can understand Dmitry being depressed after the revolution, in truth who wouldn't be? You lost everything you had ever known and one has to wonder how deep the deaths of his father, Ella, and the Imperial family effected him.

I started to wonder if Dmitry ever read the letter Rasputin sent to the Tsar predicting his death, or heard of it and if he did?  Perhaps that caused him to ponder if he had caused the death of his family?

( Just wondering, although I don't think Dmitry believed predictions or such things, but still would like to know if he ever read it and found it rather eerie? I know I do.)

Nicholas posted him to the Persian front after Rasputin's murder & so following the revolution he reached Tehran where he was helped by the British Minister Sir Charles Marling & his wife. He enrolled inthe British army & was commissioned as a captain in 1918. After the war he travelled on to India & France before settling in Britain (with the help of the Marlings) & it was there that he received the news of the murder of his father.
