Maria and Alexei photothread!

[Sophia_Skymind]

Hello!

I've just searched on the Maria pages, and there isn't such a thread, so let's start it! I think there aren't a lot of pics of Mashka and her brother. Their relationship have been dicussed many times, but I'm sure we could all use some visual aid...  

In Finland with their father, 1908.




With Anastasia, 1908.


With Anastasia and Tatiana, 1906 (let's say this one counts!)


Would anyone have some more? There doesn't seem to be a lot of photos of Alexei and Maria alone.

With Anastasia and cousin

I Don't Have others ;(

[granduchess_leah]

no me neither parently marie and alexie argued at times,

[xX_Marilyn_Xx]

Of course they argued! Who can resist snapping at a sibling? I do it all the time with mine...

Please help me not to be such and oaf...but I can't tell if the Grand Duchess in this picture (far right) is Marie or Olga. What you ya'll think? It looks more like Marie, so that's who it's going to be for now....

I'm quite sure it's Maria -- there are only 5 years difference between Maria and Aleksei, but 9 years between Olga and her brother. This GD simply can't be 9 years older than Aleksei. 

[Ortino]

It's Marie, for sure.

[Sarushka]

Aleskei is at the center, and Maria to the right of him. The photo was taken in the playroom at the AP.

I like the film that I posted the picture
alexei runs so cutely It's more of a waddle than a run but he still looks adorable I LOVE this one how he seems to be looking under Mashka's dress (well it seems like it which makes it cute)

[grandduchess_42]

Weird hats

[Sarushka]

and i must say
Tutcheva was their nanny?

Yes. I *think* she's the one who married Gilliard during or after the revolution.
