Alexander Alexandrovich was a prominent figure during the Imperial Coronation at Moscow. As depicted in engravings, he played a significant role in the procession of the Emperor and Empress, showcasing his regal presence and influence. Vasily Surikov's paintings "Menshikov in Berezovo" further highlight Alexander's importance, capturing his commanding persona and political prowess. The coronation itself was a grand affair, symbolized by the allegorical painting on Empreror Alexander III's ascension to power. However, not all events surrounding Alexander were joyous; tragedy struck with the Borki train disaster in 1888, casting a shadow over his reign. Despite these challenges, public festivities following Alexander's coronation displayed unity and celebration on Khodynka Field. Artists such as Vladimir Yegorovich Makovsky captured this jubilant atmosphere through their vibrant depictions. Religious ceremonies also held great significance for Alexander. The consecration of the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour showcased his devotion to faith and tradition. Additionally, flags of esteemed regiments like Preobrazhensky and Semenovsky were consecrated under his watchful eye. However, not all moments were filled with triumph; sorrow engulfed Russia when Emperor Alexander III passed away in 1894. His deathbed became an emblematic scene immortalized by artists seeking to capture both grief and reverence for this influential leader. Through various artworks from renowned painters like Vasili Petrovich Vereshchagin and Konstantin Apollonovich Savitsky, we catch glimpses into different facets of Alexander Alexandrovich's life - from leaving cathedrals after momentous occasions to feasting amidst opulence during Sokolniki celebrations.
