Romanov, the future Nikolaî II], Princess Alix [daughter of
Princess Alice,
Grand Duchess Ludwig von Hessen und bei Rhein, third child of Victoria]
Princess Ludwig
von Battenberg [in
the caption it’s written “Princess Louise”, I looked up on the whole
web and
couldn’t find such a Princess, it must be a printing error (as others I
found):
they have put an “e” too much. It was, with no doubt, to have been
written
“Princess Louis”. She is Princess Victoria Alberta, sister of Alix von
Hessen,
and wife of Prince Ludwig von Battenberg] Princess
Heinrich of Prussia [it’s written “Princess Henry of Russia”. As you
know, in Russia there
was no Prince or Princess, they were called Grand Duke and Grand
Duchess. Another
printing error: a “P” too much. It must have been “Princess Henry of
Prussia”,
she is Princess Irene von Hessen und bei Rhein, another child of
Alice’s,
married to her first cousin, Prince Heinrich, brother of the Kaiser]
Grand Duchess
Vladimir [Marie,
born Duchess (Herzogin) von
Mecklenburg-Schwerin, wife of Grand Duke Vladimir Aleksandrovitch, son

King Léopold
II of the Belgians (he was a first cousin of Queen Victoria) married in
1875 to
Prince Philipp von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha], Princess
Ferdinand of Roumania [Princess Mary, granddaughter of Victoria,
daughter of Duke Alfred,
married to Prince Ferdinand von Hohenzollern, who would be King of
Roumania
from 1914 to 1927], Princess Marie
Louise [von
Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg, granddaughter of Victoria
daughter
of Princess Helena, fifth child of Victoria. Author of the book],
Duchess of
Connaught [Princess
Luise of Prussia, granddaughter of Prince Friedrich Karl of Prussia,

Last row:
Grand Duke Pavel
[Aleksandrovitch,
another brother of Grand Duke Sergej], Prince Philipp
von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha [husband of Princess Louise-Marie from
Belgium] Count Mensdorff [actually writen with two
“f”s. It’s certain that this is Arthur August, sixth and youngest child
of
Emanuel de Pouilly, Count Mensdorff-Pouilly, and of Sophie von
Sachsen-Coburg
und Gotha, eldest sister of Léopold I of the Belgians – he was
the seventh and
youngest child of his parents – thus Arthur August was first cousin of
Victoria;
in this photo he was 77 years old. His other brothers were, at the time
of the
photo, all deceased], Princess
Alexandra of Saxe-Coburg [there’s no “Princess Alexander” (another
printing error of the book of
the Princess) she is actually Princess Alexandra, daughter of
Prince
Alfred. She married the Duke (Herzog)
Ernst zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg two years later, in 1896, when she was
only 18
years old. In this photo she was around 16, so still single and not
Princess Alexander, meaning: married!...] , Grand Duchess
Sergej [Princess
Ella von Hessen und bei Rhein (another sister of Alix) married to Grand
Duke
Sergej Aleksandrovitch], Duke of
Saxe-Coburg and Gotha [Prince Alfred, fourth child of Victoria –
