Alexander II was quite a dashing young man who stole QV's young heart. If he was not in line to be Tsar, he might have married her.  ;)

Theodore (or Feodor) was the most dashing of the brothers, I heard Felix Yussopov had a crush on his brother-in-law for many years.  :P

I only have one with all the children in Russia. But you can find his photo in Coryne's book on Xenia. I didn't find any indivual photos of Feodor in the sale of Romanov photos in London. Otherwise I would have bought at least one or two. He was indeed dashing.  ;)

You are welcome. Feodor's son Michael ( I think his mother was the morganric daughter of Grand Duke Paul) is also very handsome when he was young too. I think you can find more of him in Jacques Ferrand's book on the decendents of Grand Duke Paul.  ;)

There's a book on Grand Duke Paul's descendants? I'm so going to hunt for it.

p.s.
George, Michael's son, was handsome. It's a shame he died young. Who knows what great thing he could've contributed to the world? Same thing with Vladimir Paley. He would've been a great poet, had he lived long. He could've made Russia proud. Wasn't he working on a play before he died?
And oh, Dmitri and Felix were handsome men. I liked their style, and how they carried their clothes/uniforms. A lot of men today have gone down the ultra-bling, kinda-tacky, ghettofab route, or the punk-rock way, or the Justin Timberlake  style, but most look tooo made-up, or too thrown-in together. I like simple elegance better- especially when it comes naturally to them; even if they're just in a simple suit, or a military uniform or whatever, it still shines through.

I found Nikolai II heartbreakingly handsome  :-[

Also how about heinrich of Prussia, have you ever seen his pic, I think he's quite beautiful =) He was married to Irene of Hesse and by the Rhine. Not quite Russian Court but still worthy to see I guess;



Oh, and about Alexey; he was the cutest child I think...

My vote also goes to Nikolai/Nicholas II. I don't think I would describe him as "heartbreakingly handsome", but he has a sort of sad yet kind expression that really appeals to me. His brother was also very attractive....

That's a nice photo! Looks like Nicholas II, sort of. Well not really. But...kind of! lol.
And I agree that Nicholas II has a "sad look" in his eyes. I think it shows most in his portraits.
