Yes, of all of the royal houses, german, british, romanian, etc, i feel the Russian immediate royal family were the least spoilt and stuck up, tho they were aware of their rank and position they never acted up
It's a pity that two of the Grand Duchesses had chances to marry and escape their murders. Olga could have married King Carol II of Romania, and Marie was wooed by Louis Mountbatten, both said "No.". I'm not sure that that is a flower brooch on Marie's dress; based on it's placement, it seems more likely to be an order. Very good video.
So very sad that these beautiful girls and their brother Alexi were killed because of the stupidity of their Parents. Also sad that no other Royal families would give them save harbour in case they also lost their Crown to a coup.
Why is it that the narrators have such a hard time pronouncing Faberge? It’s “Fab-er-zjay”! Not Fab-erg! Not Fab-eerg! And even though a brooch is spelled with two o’s, it’s pronounced: broach. Like coach.
Am I the only one who find Grand Duchess Maria the most beautiful of Romanov sisters???
Wish we could have gotten a close up of this jewelry.
Yes, sadly i think such personals jewelry were the ones stolen by the bolsheviks in the end
The fact the eldest helped a boy on crutches and they volunteered In a hospital makes their execution all the more heartbreaking.
