Thank you for watching! In anticipation of comments about the pronunciation of Anastasia, here's a quick note (also in the video!). There are many ways to pronounce Anastasia, though most Romanov historians agree that A-nas-ta-sia is faithful to the traditional Russian pronunciation, so I've settled on that one in an attempt to be as close as possible to how the Romanovs would have been referred to. This pronunciation is still used today in Russia, quite a few Russian celebrities called Anastasia go by that pronunciation, for example, figure skater Anastasiia Gubanova and gymnast Anastasia Ilyankova. It's a beautiful name!
The Tzar was cousin of king George grandfather of Queen Elizabeth. He refuse to offer refuge to Nicholas because the family relation with Germany. After Nicholas was murdered King George never smile again.
I love learning about this family's lifestyle in photos with their belongings to wonder and admire them as a sadly lost historic era that was cruelly stolen away from them along with their lives. Thank you for your research it is much appreciated.
I always look forward to your vlogs! Your research is so very thorough and a true labor of love. Question: We are so aware of the crown jewels of the Romanovs - but what of that of their 4 daughters? Did they also have jewelry of their own? Thank you and greetings from Texas
This is a great question, I will make a video on it! The short answer is yes, they were gifted various different types of jewellery, typically for their birthdays and name days. In particular, necklaces, rings, and bracelets were popular presents. Thank you for commenting, I hope you're having a great day in sunny Texas!
I am also a big fan of the Romanov family!! I do confess one of the topics that interest me the most about the family is the Tsar Nicholas II's 4 daughters, who calls themselves OTMA (Olga, Tatiana, Maria & Anastasia). Your research & this clip do a great job bringing the Romanov family memories to life, especially the OTMA!! Thank you so much for this great clip!!
I've always been interested in the Romanov family and I find your videos super intriguing! You cover some pretty specific topics that most other youtubers gloss over. I really hope you continue making these kinds of videos. Lots of love❤❤❤❤
This is a wonderful video. You write and present with great knowledge and style. I thoroughly enjoyed this. And thank you for pronouncing Anastasia’s name correctly.
Over the years I've seen many photos of the Czar's apartments but I don't think I have ever seen any of the children's rooms. This was really interesting, especially that the girls slept on army cots. Thanks for a very interesting video.
My birth-name is Anastasia so this topic has always fascinated me. I remember being in elementary school reading a book about them that I had gotten from the library, looking at all the pictures, so this video kind of felt nostalgic to see those pictures again!
Great question! As far as I am aware, unfortunately not - though there are a few bottles that are sometimes sold on second hand websites, with notes about their scents. La Rose (Olga) has a floral smell of mainly roses, but some notes of lavender, violet, and jasmine, and a little spice too! Those lucky enough to get their hands on this perfume say that it's the most realistic and pleasant rose scented perfume they have tried! Jasmin de Corse (Tatiana) has a white floral smell. Lilas Pourpre (Maria) has very little information on its scent unfortunately :( Violette Pourpre is a light, violet scent, light and with a hint of vanilla. It appears that the colour has deepened with age, turning a quite strong purple in the bottle. And now I want to make a video on their perfumes! Thank you for your comment and for watching!
Goodness, what wouldn't I do to have one of these in my hands? I'm a "perfume sommelier" of sorts, so I'd love an in-depth video from you on this topic! Congratulations on your work and dedication! Your channel is definitely one of my favorites...
A perfumer recreated scents found in the Alexander Palace and they were made into small sample bottles for each daughter in 2018. It was part of an exhibition about perfume in Russia. I have a set of them actually.
this was such a great video! i was really taken by the photographs of the sisters' room in exile-they've long been humanized, Anastasia particularly, but I've never seen photos of their rooms. even if i might not have religious iconography on my walls, the photo collages and tapestries don't look that different to the ones in my room!
Can you please make a video about the sisters' love interests and crushes? I have heard that Lord Mountbatten was in love with Maria. Was the love reciprocated?

Sadly the girls were not sent with their brother and mother were not sent to the Crimea as advised in January 1917. Sadly fheir stupid father refused and entrapped them. May they rest in peace allow them to.
I anticipated getting comments about pronunciation 😅 There are *many* ways to pronounce Anastasia, depending on your location, dialect, etc. However, Romanov historians agree that A-nas-ta-sia is faithful to the traditional Russian pronunciation, so I've settled on that one in an attempt to be as close as possible to how the Romanovs would have been referred to, though this way of saying it might sound quite different to other common western pronunciations. This pronunciation is still used today in Russia, quite a few Russian celebrities called Anastasia go by that pronunciation, for example, figure skater Anastasiia Gubanova and gymnast Anastasia Ilyankova. It's a beautiful name with a deep history and many variations, and whilst it’s sadly impossible to know how exactly it might have been said by the Romanovs, I’ve tried to use the traditional way ☺️
I think it's just that you put the emphasis on a different syllable. I've mainly heard it "Anna-STA-seeah". You said "Anna-sta-SEEah" @@ellasinquiries

Can we smell the girls' perfumes in the museum?

@@hollydaugherty2620 Oh! Could you describe each scent? And would you know where to find these perfume samples to buy?
this was such a great video! i was really taken by the photographs of the sisters' room in exile-they've long been humanized, Anastasia particularly, but I've never seen photos of their rooms. even if i might not have religious iconography on my walls, the photo collages and tapestries don't look that different to the ones in my room!
It is pronounced "Nikolai-evna", as in Nikolai. Not "Nikolayevna".
Can you please make a video about the sisters' love interests and crushes? I have heard that Lord Mountbatten was in love with Maria. Was the love reciprocated?
I really enjoyed this, great research. You are able to bring life to the girls. Thank you for your hard work!❤❤. My grandmothers name was Olga. ❤❤
Thank you, I'm so glad to hear that! Olga is such a beautiful name ❤
Thanks!
Ellen, this is so kind! Thank you so much for your support, it truly does mean a lot!
Como está o andamento da recriação dos quartos infantis do Alexandre Palace?
You have done a phenomenal job. It’s a shame more don’t know about your work.
Thank you so much for your kind comment!
Great video! Do you speak/are able to read Russian? Since many sources do seem to be only available in it!

Anna-stuh-see-uh? I've also heard it as Anna-stah-see-uh.
I still prefer Anna-stay-shuh
Wow thank you for sharing with the class

Her name was Anastasia! Pronounce it properly.
