Pale, Aleksandra took Nikolay by the arm and went out the palace door. Behind them came the five children, all in tears. Above, the sky was a pink rose, the first rays of the sun enveloping the palace and the park in a golden fog. As the cars drove away, the Romanians returned to look at their lover Tsarskoye Selo until he was lost in the distance. They would never see him again.
The Romanov sisters were the most photographed princesses of the time. They were the most popular, beautiful and attractive of princesses. They were the Grand Duchesses of Russia, the ones who brought relief to the tsar and the country, the ones who shone even though it was dark.
What is your favorite Romanov sister (OTMA)? And why?
My favorite Romanov sister is Tatiana. I admire all the girls, but she has a special inner strength. Her courage, justice and kindness seem to lift her. Everyone says NOW that Maria is the most beautiful, but it seems to me that Tatiana has a royal beauty. I like that she took care of the wounded soldiers. He had the strength to stay with them. She was elegant and graceful, and when you talked to her you felt like you were talking to the emperor's daughter. She was the one who took care of her sisters - often being the mother instead of Alexandra. I think she was the bravest.
I also like that she was ambitious and didn't back down from hard things.
I like Olga because she was caring and sentimental. I liked it even because it was melancholy.
At Maria I admire her friendship and gentleness. He liked children and wanted many.
I like Anastasia's vivacity, intelligence and optimism.

My favorite empress will definitely always be Catherine the Great. She had such a fascinating life, and Massie's biography on her only made me live her more! Elizabeth is my second favorite for basically the same reason. For emperors, Alexander the Liberator.
Wow! Great choices! I admire Elizabeth as well, but I don't really like Catherine. Defintely, I can say that she was a wonderful empress!
Thinking about Marie Antoinette and Alexandra, it really is a shame how they and their respective families were brought down. The children especially didn't deserve it. And Louis and Nicholas may have been excellent fathers and husbands, but they simply weren't fit to rule and I think that's what makes their lives even more tragic. In some way, I really do pity them.
I agree. Great choices btw! Thanks for your answer! I like them both, especially Alexandra, also her sisters (Victoria, Ella, Irene) are very interesting too.
All the Romanova sisters are beautiful, clever, gentle and wonderful! But my favourite is Anastasia. I like her personality, her optimistic and happy nature! And my favourite number two is Tatiana. I like her leadership skills, her attention and her devotion to the other sisters. Then is Maria, the angelic sister. And the fourth, Olga. I do not know why I don't like her, she is kinda boring. But I love them all! So, I wanted to know if you can make like aesthetics to Otma, maybe also to Alexei? Thank you very much for your blog and see you!
All the Romanov Empresses consort of Russia since the proclamation of the Russian Empire in 1721.
