Jimmy hobnobs with royalty: Romania's Queen Marie, with Mayor Walker on her arrival in New York, October 18, 1926, as she started her extended journey across America.
The queen is immortalized in Dorothy Parker's well-known ditty:
Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song, A medley of extemporanea, And love is a thing that can never go wrong, And I am Marie of Romania.

“The Edinburgh sisters had such a great fashion sense. Like even now, in the 21st century, that i look at their photos, they exhibit class and glam. They really were such powerhouse fashion icons.” - Submitted by Anonymous

Did Mary have good relations with queen Marie of Romania? Im looking for an info on them but I have been unsuccessful
Hi!
As far as I know they did!
Marie had been closer to George as children (they were cousins after all), but herself and May certainly knew each other! As the years went by I think, again, Marie kept more in contact with George than with May, but Marie’s state visit (with her husband) sometime in the early 1920s saw all of them getting on like a house on fire!
I think as well there was a post recently where Marie commented on Bertie (as he was sent to represent them at Marie’s sons wedding) where she remarked that whilst she reminded him of George, his smile was entirely his mothers!
Hope this helps!
❤️

Portraits of Romanovs (and Relations) by Nicholas Panagiotti Zarokilli
Nicholas Pannagiottis Zarokilli was born in Turkey in 1879. He was a painter particularly fond of creating pictures of beautiful women. From 1912 to 1920, Zarokilli produced paintings for publications like MoToR, Modern Priscilla, Women’s Home Companion, The Green Book, McCall’s, and The Saturday Evening Post.
He also designed World War I posters. The United States needed money for the war, so the artist created posters to try and encourage people to give for the cause.
Zarokilli was known well for his dry-point paintings. Drypoint is a printmaking technique of the intaglio family, in which an image is incised into a plate or "matrix" with a hard-pointed "needle" of sharp metal or diamond point. In principle, the method is practically identical to engraving.
He painted portraits for people such as the Queen of Spain, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Grand Duchess Anastasia, the King of Portugal, and Mr. and Mrs. Solomon Guggenheim. Landscapes were also his love, painting the cities of Venice, Madrid, and Seville.
The following is his rendering of several members of the Romanov family (and other relations.) I have seen some of these here and there before (several of you have them in your Tumblrs and always admired them; I think he captures the likenesses admirably. I found the ones here together and identified on the British Museum website (they were done between 1920 and 1922.)
These are the names of the easily recognizable "personages" in the paintings in the order they appear below:
Prince Felix Yusupof (wearing a suit)
Prince Felix Yusupof (head)
Princess Irina Alexandrovna
Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich (sitting)
Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich (bust)
Prince Andrei Alexandrovich
Prince Feodor Alexandrovich
Grand Duchess Anastasia Mikhailovna
Grand Duke Kyril Vladimirovich
Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna the Younger
Queen Marie of Romania (born Princess Marie Alexandra Victoria of Edinburgh) - Granddaughter of Queen Victoria
Queen Victoria Eugenie of Spain (born Princess Victoria Eugenie Julia Ena of Battenberg (youngest granddaughter of Queen Victoria, Hessian Princess through the morganatic Battenberg line)

Regina Maria printre căpeteniile indienilor Sioux.
„După ce mi-a cuvântat în mod misterios, bătrânul războinic și-a scos propria coroană de pene și a așezat-o pe capul meu ca să o păstrez. Pentru mine a fost o onoare colosală care nu se acordă femeilor decât cu ocazii foarte rare, dar am fost declarată de ei drept „Femeie Războinic”, titlu care își are ironia sa, căci eu mă aflam într-o misiune de pace.
Coroana de pene așezată cu toată seriozitatea pe capul meu: a trebuit să mă las jos pe o piele de bizon și am fost ridicată de toți indienii și purtată solemn la cortul lor și poftită înăuntru. Deoarece intrarea era foarte joasă și penele mele uriașe, a trebuit aproape să mă târăsc înăuntru, în mâini și în genunchi.
Aici, conform unui vechi obicei, ar fi trebuit să ne crestăm cu cuțite și să ne amestecăm sângele, dar lucru acesta a fost făcut într-un mod mult mai civilizat și într-o manieră umană: am fost doar înțepați cu un ac, iar sângele nostru a fost amestecat de ofițerul ce servea drept intermediar. Mi-au fost oferite daruri și am întors amabilitatea, oferindu-le broderii românești. Cu cântece și dansuri am fost condusă înapoi în tren. Scena a satisfăcut din plin și am fost nu numai interesați, ci și amuzați.”
Discursul ținut de Red Tomahawk :
ONORATĂ FEMEIE CĂPETENIE
[SIOUXII NU AU UN CUVÂNT PENTRU „DOAMNĂ” SAU „ÎNĂLȚIMEA VOASTRĂ” SAU „REGINĂ”, IAR CUVÂNTUL FEMEIE E FOLOSIT TOATĂ REVERENȚA ȘI TOT RESPECTUL]
VREAU SĂ-ȚI SPUN ACUM CÂTEVA CUVINTE. VEZI AICI PE ACEST SOLDAT [MAIORUL A.B. WELCH]. EL ESTE, PRIN ADOPȚIUNE, UNUL DINTRE AI NOȘTRI ȘI ÎI SPUNEM FRATE. EL MI-A SPUS CĂ EȘTI „CÂRMUITOAREA UNEI NAȚIUNI ȘI O FEMEIE RĂZBOINIC.” AM TRIMIS PESTE OCEAN MULȚI DINTRE TINERII MEI CA SĂ LUPTE CU DUȘMANUL. OAMENII TĂI AU FOST PRIETENI CU OAMENII MEI ȘI AU LUPTAT ÎN ACELEAȘI BĂTĂLII. MI SE SPUNE CĂ AI FOST ÎN ACEL RĂZBOI ȘI ATUNCI AI FĂCUT SACRIFICII. MI SE SPUNE CĂ MULȚI DINTRE TINERII TĂI AU FOST ÎNGROPAȚI DEPARTE DE ȚARĂ. NOI AM DISCUTAT DESPRE ACESTE LUCRURI. NOI VREM SĂ TE ONORĂM. O FEMEIE NU POARTĂ COROANĂ DE PENE DE VULTUR DECÂT DACĂ A SĂVÂRȘIT FAPTE EXTRAORDINARE DE EROISM. CONTRIBUȚIA PE CARE AI ADUS-O ÎN ACEL MARE RĂZBOI NE-A FĂCUT PE NOI, CARE SUNTEM DIN PREERII, SĂ TE ÎNDRĂGIM. SIMȚIM CĂ AVEM ÎN TINE UN CAMARAD PE CALEA RĂZBOIULUI.
DE ACEEA, ÎȚI OFER ACEST ÎNALT ÎNSEMN DE BRAVURĂ ȘI ÎȚI DAU NUMELE DE „WINYAN KIPANPI WIN” (FEMEIA PE CARE O CHEMI) ȘI EȘTI ACUM SORA MEA.
