You speak about children of Count Alexander Dmitrievitch Sheremetev - Elizaveta (1884-1962) and Georgiy (1887-1971). The photo of Elizaveta with her parents you can find at the 1st page of this thread.
Also the photo of the Sheremetevs here :

I thank you so much for your answer, can you give me some more information about their lives?
Where did they live? where did they die?...... Or if you know one place or one book where I can find something.
Apologize me if I ask you but you seem to know a lot of things!
Thank you again for your help.

There is a book in Russian about the Sheremetevs but I don't have it unfortunately.
Countess Elizaveta was married thrice : 1st husband Count Zubov, then a von Derfelden, and then Prince Achille Andronnikov.
Count Georgiy was never married.
I'll try to find some more info on them.
Here I have to correct my info on Count Georgiy Sheremetev. What I've found on him was really fascinating.
Count Georgiy Alexandrovitch Sheremetev (1887-1971) was an office of cavalry, took part in WW I and the Civil War in Russia after the 1917 Revolution.
In the 1950s he became a priest and afterwards the Archpriest of London's eparchy of the Russian Orthodox Church. He was a confessor of GDss Xenia Aleksandrovna, who also lived then in England.
He made verses and translated into English some orthodox theological books.
And actually he had a wife! In 1910 he married Princess Ekaterina Dmitrievna Golitzina (1889-1936) and they had 2 children: Alexander (1911-96) (with descendants) and Ekaterina (b.1913) who became the citizens of the USA.
