EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the poignant moment of Alexandra Feodorovna, also known as Alix of Hesse, signing a document as the wife of Nicholas II, the last Tsar of Russia, in October 1917. The image shows Alexandra in profile, her regal bearing evident as she holds a fan in one hand and pens a signature with the other. Dressed in the traditional Russian crown and veil, Alexandra's expression is one of determination and resilience, reflecting the turbulent political climate of the time. As a granddaughter of Queen Victoria and a member of the German House of Hesse, Alexandra's marriage to Nicholas II had been a source of controversy and tension, particularly in the final years of their reign. The Russian Revolution was in full swing, and the fate of the Romanov dynasty was uncertain. This powerful photograph, signed by the artist, is a poignant reminder of the last days of the Russian monarchy and the courage and dignity of its final rulers.
