[Sarushka]

I don't think I've ever seen a photo of the Baltatzar inscription before. 

[grandduchess_42]

[nena]

what does it say?

Somethig as
"In that night, Baltatzar was killed by his servants....'' 

[Amanda_Misha]

A question, Nena:
Where you found the picture that takes by title "God bless this palce"?
Thanks for the answer 
All the pictures are interesting

The quote on the wall of the cellar comes from the Bible, the book of Daniel, chapter 5. Someone of the Reds had a macabre sense of irony...Belshatzar (Balthazar) was a weak (and the last)Babylonian king (coregent of his father, Nabonidus), and died when Babylon was taken by the Persians, in 539 BC. Apparently, he was killed by his servants...

I wouldn't be surprised if it was Yurovsky who wrote it.

No. Solider named Aiask wrote it.

how odd!
i've never heard of him..

[Elise]

Yes, you're right. I believe he's with his Hessian (or possibly Greek) cousins in the bottom one.

Yes you're right Sarushka, Alexis is with his Hessian cousins.

^NAAOTMAA Fan, those are rare! Do/does you/anyone have a bigger version of them esp. the 1st one? Olga and Anastasia looks skinny there.

[Holly]

I have a bigger version somewhere I'll post if no one else has it first. I still think it's Maria and Anastasia. I have it in 2 books both labeled as Maria and every other place I've seen it, it's said to be Maria.

Hope you love pics.! 

[Sarushka]

Taken under captivity in Tobolsk, 1917 or 1918:

Olga with Anastasia, and Alexei on a swing:

Here it is larger. I also believe it's Olga and Anastasia. The posture, height, and weight all say Olga to me.

Which books do you have in, Holly? I've only found it so far in Royal Russia, and neither of the girls are identified -- it's just Aleskei and "two of his sisters." 

You'd think we could figure it out by the color of their sweaters, but looking at other pictures from Tobolsk, it appears the girls interchanged their hats, scarves, and sweaters....
