One thought on “ROMANOV FAMILY: FAVORITE CHAIR

  1. Oh Helen! May I come with you in your Time Machine??!! I have only just discovered your site, 15 mins ago (5.15pm Monday 13th Feb 2017 UK time) and it is absolutely Fascinating. I have 2 bookcases of books about the Romanov family from Alexander 11. I visited Russia for 3 weeks in Sept. 2006, made my own itinerary to include all the Romanov places in and around Moscow and St Petersburg. And did the River Cruise from Moscow to Petersburg. I was really living in those times. There was no one else visiting the Alexander Palace at TsarskoeSelo and I stood by THE chair and touched it, in the Mauve Boudoir, and the lady in charge of the room, took my photo. I have recently Saved (on Pinterest which I’ve just come across) some of these photos of THE chair. Lovely to see SO many here! I’d love to go again, but too old now. I’m 78 tomorrow!
    I’m on my iPad – how do I Save your website to visit and read more?
    Can anyone help please? I don’t use the computer as I don’t understand it! I have no URL. I’ve never had a blog and didn’t know how to.
