Rare original 3.5 x 2.5 photo of the members of the Russian Imperial Family seated outdoors, showing (left to right): Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna, Alexei Nikolaevich, Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna, and Tatiana, with Anastasia holding her dog, a King Charles Spaniel named Jimmy, in her lap. Reverse bears an ink notation in an unknown hand that reads, “1917 Tobolsk.” Also includes an original 4.25 x 2.5 photo of Anastasia seated outdoors alongside Alexei and another young boy. In overall fine condition. Both seem to date to 1917 while the family was in captivity, probably during August while being held at Tobolsk in Siberia; the building in the background of the first image appears to be the Governor's mansion in Tobolsk, where they were held in relative luxury before being moved to Yekaterinburg.
